The Works Of Dionysius The Areopagite Volumes 1&2 -Dionysius The AreopagiteSECTION XBut, if any one should take the Divine Name in the Oracles, of “the same,” or that of “justice,” in the sense of “the equal,” we must say, that Almighty God is equal, not only as indivisible and unswerving, but also as going forth to all, and through all, equally; and as foundation of the self-existent Equality, in conformity with which, He equally effects the same passage, through all things mutually, and the participation of those who receive equally, according to the aptitude of each; and the equal gift distributed to all, according to due; and according as He has anticipated pre-eminently and uniquely in Himself, every equality, intelligible, intelligent, rational, sensible, essential, physical, voluntary, as beseems the Power over all, which is productive of every equality. |
