… concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh. (Romans 1:3)

Our text gives us a stunningly concise yet theologically rich truth: in just a few words, Paul affirms the mystery of the Incarnation. The eternal Son of God—the Word who was with God and was God (John 1:1)—became human. He didn’t just appear to be a man; He truly became one. Born of a virgin from the royal line of David, He entered the world not with fanfare but in a humble stable. Yet in that moment, the eternal met the temporal. The uncreated took on the created. The divine joined to humanity—not diluted, but united. Jesus Christ is not partly man and partly God, He is fully both. And in this perfect union, He alone is able to bridge the gap between a holy God and a sinful people. He is the Mediator we all need—and the Saviour we now have.
