The Nature of the Son in Psalm 15
From the interpretation of the 15th Psalm. But indeed he had experience of both Jesuses. For he became also in the field of human souls, and being outside of flesh, he lives and subsists.
Therefore, he is rational and consubstantial with the souls of men, just as the flesh becomes consubstantial with the flesh of men, born of Mary.
Eustathius of Antioch from the interpretation of the 15th Psalm: God sent forth his Son having come from a woman; not plural having come, but singular having come; for the person is unique. He did not say the nature is unique—away with that, may it never be; nor did he say the same essence of flesh and deity, but he said one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom all things, in the distinction of the natures, is made known according to all things.

Commentarius in Psalmum [Sp.] (fragmenta) ̓Εκ τῆς ἑρμηνείας τοῦ ιεʹ ψαλμοῦ· Ἀλλὰ μὴν ἡ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ ἑκατέρων πεῖραν ἔσχε. Γέγονε γὰρ καὶ ἐν τῷ χωρίῳ τῶν ἀνθρωπίνων ψυχῶν, καὶ τῆς σαρκὸς ἐκτὸς γενομένη ζῇ καὶ ὑφέστηκε. Λογικὴ ἄρα, καὶ ταῖς ψυχαῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὁμοούσιος, ὥσπερ καὶ ἡ σὰρξ ὁμοούσιος τῇ τῶν ἀνθρώπων σαρκὶ τυγχάνει, ἐκ τῆς Μαρίας προελθοῦσα. Εὐσταθίου Ἀντιοχείας ἐξ ἑρμηνείας τοῦ ιεʹ ψαλμοῦ· Ἐξαπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ γενόμενον ἐκ γυναικός· οὐ γενομένους, ἀλλὰ γενόμενον· μοναδικὸν γὰρ τὸ πρόσωπον· οὐκ εἶπον μοναδικὴν τὴν φύσιν· ἄπαγε, μὴ γένοιτο· οὐδὲ τὴν αὐτὴν οὐσίαν σαρκὸς καὶ θεότητος, ἀλλ' εἶπον ἕνα Κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν, δι' οὗ τὰ πάντα, ἐν τῷ διαφόρῳ τῶν φύσεων, γνωριζόμενον κατὰ πάντα.
