The Metaphysics of the Incarnation. Edited by Anna Marmodoro and John Hill
Christians generally agree that Christ is a single being, not two; and that he is both fully divine and fully human. The question, however, arises: how can someone who is God also be human?

The question, however, arises: how can someone who is God also be human? Or—what may be a slightly different question—what is the nature of the relationship between the eternal Word and the human person, Jesus of Nazareth?
