Mary then did truly conceive a body which had God inhabiting it. And God the Word was truly bornĀ of the Virgin, having clothed Himself with a body of like passions with our own. He who forms all men in the womb, was Himself really in the womb, and made for Himself a body of the seed of the Virgin, but without any intercourse of man.
Ignatius of Antioch
Epistle to the Trallians
Chapter X
