On the one hand, he is the Divine One who proclaims that the Realm of Heaven is present in the here and now-and on the other hand, he is the Human One, who shares our physical reality. In Matthew's account, Jesus, like a winged man, represents the union of human and Divine qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis first volume of the Celtic Bible Commentary brings these ideas to life.
