Verse 11
11. For An illustration of the divine consciousness is drawn from the human consciousness.
The things of a man The interior things of his thought.
Spirit Which, by the power of consciousness turning our attention inward, reads our own inner thoughts and purposes. The only reason why human reason cannot absolutely know the existence of the divine Personality is, that man can only infer it from the works of creation and providence, and cannot walk into the divine Consciousness, and know it. But no more can a man know the consciousness of another man, and can only infer his neighbour’s possessing thought and reason from his external manifestations. So that we have the same sort of proof of the personality of God that we have of the mentality of our fellow-man.
