word kenoo, translated "emptied“
Philippians 2:5-8 King James Version
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ
Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not
robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon
him the form of a servant, and was made in the
likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled
himself, and became obedient unto death, even the
death of the cross.
The self-Emptying (kenosis) of Christ,
which was a voluntary act, consisted
in a surrender of the independent
exercise of the divine attributes.
It was the union of the human and the
divine that limited the Logos. He laid
aside the form of God. By so doing, He did
not divest Himself of His divine nature. The
change is the change of state: the form of
a servant for the form of God. (Luke 22:42)
