"The Divine becomes partakers of the human in order that the human may partake of the Divine" - Alexander MacLaren

To be partaker of the Divine is to give all diligence, all effort, to pay attention.  To attend to the Divine at one time was to ascend to a holy place, in the same way Pastor Terry Brown describes 7 rungs of a ladder, practical "steps" from 2 Peter 1:5-8 to partake of the Divine.
