Question

In order to defend the integrality of this thing, John Duns Scotus defined metaphysical personhood as a privative property. Scotus also believed that God’s first creative act was to predestine this thing to glory. This thing (-5[2])is compared to the Temple from which the glory of the Lord departed, in a controversial view from the school of Antioch that is still held by the Church of the East. This thing dissolves “like a drop of honey in the sea” (-5[1])according to the heresy of (*) Eutyches, while the Gnostic-inspired Docetists believed that this thing was merely an illusion. (10[2])This thing is united to a pre-existent counterpart “without confusion” according to the Chalcedonian definition. The Council of Ephesus affirmed the term “Theotokos” because this thing is united to the Logos in a single hupostasis. For 10 points, name this property of Jesus which He took on at the Incarnation.
