Written work
Of the Incarnation of Jesus Christ
Von der Menschwerdung Jesu Christi (De incarnatione verbi)
Three books on the incarnation, the passion and the new birth. Böhme explains Sophia, the virgin of wisdom whom Adam lost in his fall, and presents Mary not as a heavenly being but as a human woman in whom divine wisdom was united once more with humanity. The third part, on the tree of Christian faith, is one of his clearest expositions of inner rebirth.
