First sentence: If God wanted to reveal his maternal aspect to us-whether we call it Wisdom, or Love, or whatever name we give it-in a womanly maternal form; if he wanted to grant us salvation from the womb of Mary and from the womb of the Church, then God has done so by setting before us a powerful and compelling image, a model for our whole material as well as spiritual life.
