Paragraph 2. “CONCEIVED BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY”
504
Jesus
is conceived by the Holy Spirit in the Virgin Mary’s womb because he is the New
Adam, who inaugurates the new creation: “The first man was from the earth,
a man of dust; the second man is from heaven.”162 From his
conception, Christ’s humanity is filled with the Holy Spirit, for God
“gives him the Spirit without measure.”163 From “his
fullness” as the head of redeemed humanity “we have all received,
grace upon grace.”164
