The concept that God was fully human is a difficult one for mere mortals to grasp. Even the phrase “God incarnate” does not give the full impact. According to Dictionary.com the word incarnate means “embodied in flesh; given a bodily, especially a human, form”. The idea of “God fully human” definitely takes embodiment a few steps further.
