Luke2:40
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.
This Verse shortly summeth up all that we have in the Gospel, of the History of the first twelve years of our Saviours Life. Tho there could be no Accession to the perfection of the Divine Nature in Christ, yet as to his humane Nature, he was (as we are) capable of Accession of Habits, and Wisdom and Knowlege, for tho the Divine Nature was personally United to the humane Nature, yet there was no Communication of Properties.
