Communicatio idiomatum

Communicatio idiomatum is Latin for "communication of properties" and is used to explain a specific aspect of the Incarnation: how the divine properties are communicated to Jesus' human nature and how the human properties are communicated to the divine nature. It is also used to ascribe both divine and human properties to the person of Jesus.
