By the word becoming Flesh, the Incarnation, we mean the Second Person of the Holy Trinity assuming human nature. Our Lord took to Himself a soul and a body and the Second Person was born a man just like you and me. In fact Our Lord was so like you and me that people scoffed at Him and described Him merely as a son of a carpenter, Joseph, a poor man of Nazareth, one of us, nothing to be particularly proud of, the most ordinary of ordinary folk. That's how incarnated our Lord was. (Fr. John Brucciani)
