And therefore, the Seraphims, or loving Angels, are the first of pure Creatures, and the first allied to the last Person in the Trinity, who is Love. To this purpose, the Divines teach, That the Spiritual Powers of our Vnderstanding and VVill, being compared in the Exercise of Contemplation, and considered ex modo procedend, the Acts of the Will excell the Acts of the Vnderstanding; though the Vnderstanding, simply consider'd, taketh place of the VVill. Because such is the Nature and Way of the Vnderstanding in Vnderstanding, that the Things which she Vnderstandeth, she draws, in a manner, and fits to her self. |
And Therefore, the Seraphims, or loving Angels, Are the First of pure Creatures, and the First allied to the last Person in the Trinity, who is Love. To this purpose, the Divines teach, That the Spiritual Powers of our Understanding and Will, being compared in the Exercise of Contemplation, and considered ex modo procedend, the Acts of the Will excel the Acts of the Understanding; though the Understanding, simply considered, Takes place of the Will. Because such is the Nature and Way of the Understanding in Understanding, that the Things which she Understandeth, she draws, in a manner, and fits to her self. |
