Throne to manger
God into man.
"That is the humiliation of myth into fact, of God into man; what is everywhere and always, imageless and ineffable, only to be glimpsed in dream and symbol and the acted poetry of ritual becomes small, solid---no bigger than a man who can lie asleep in a rowing boat on the lake of Galilee" (Lewis, "Is Theology Poetry?").
