Excerpt from The Patience of Hope
"In Jesus Christ all contradictions are reconciled;" yet in Him, also, and in all that is connected with His person and office, we are met by a strange contradiction - a clashing of opposing attributes. "Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah, glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? He who hath trodden down the people in his wrath, and trampled upon them in his fury." Is this one with him the man of sorrows and of humiliation, of silence and long-suffering, despised of men and rejected, giving his back to the smiters, and his cheeks to them that plucked off the hair!
