' The Pope of Egypt '... and Divine Nature '...

But,, did the Divinity [of Christ] suffer? [...] The holy fathers explained this point, through the aforementioned clear example of the red-hot iron,, it is the analogy equated, for the Divine Nature,, which became united with the human nature.. They explained, that when the blacksmith strikes the red-hot iron,, the hammer is actually striking, both the iron and the fire united with it.. The iron alone bends (suffers),, whilst the fire is untouched, though it bends with the iron. ........................ Pope Shenouda III of Alexandria
