The truth is that only in the mystery of the incarnate Word does the
mystery of man take on light. For Adam, the first man, was a figure of Him Who
was to come, namely Christ the Lord. Christ, the final Adam, by the
revelation of the mystery of the Father and His love, fully reveals man to man
himself and makes his supreme calling clear. It is not surprising, then, that in
Him all the aforementioned truths find their root and attain their crown. [link]
