77. Ibid., 59. This is known as the communication of attributes or communication idiomatum. It states that “there obtains between God’s eternal Word and the human reality of Jesus a unity . . . such that the attributes of Jesus’ human reality can be predicated of the eternal Word—the Word has become a human being, the eternal Word has suffered, the Son of the Father died, and so on. And, vice versa, wherever Jesus’ human reality is grasped in its definitive concretion, in which it may be no means be thought of as existing in separation from God, divine attributes can be predicated of Jesus—Jesus is God, and so on” (Rahner, Love of Jesus, 30–31).
78. Cyril likens this to the soul of a person, the nature of which remains unchanged even as it experiences the suffering of the body it is in, which is changed by the suffering (Cyril of Alexandria, “Scholia on the Incarnation,” 301). But while the soul of a person may remain unchanged even as it experiences suffering in a formal sense, experiences of great suffering do leave a mark upon the soul of a person.
