“Holy Scripture has to be penetrated, dwelt in. It isn't dwelt in, it isn't experienced by us because we live a purely external life. I'm talking about the Holy Trinity, let's say, and I say, the Holy Trinity is three persons, it's one nature, it's this, that, the other. Christ had two natures, but was one hypostasis, was one person. What does that mean? We understand no more about all that than any of the rest of the people in the world outside. Why? Because while it's possible for us to conceive of these things rationally, we can understand them only in our spirit, through the Spirit. We need a revelation, such as happened to John…” - Elder Aimilianos of Simonopetra, The Authentic Seal
