25. The verb entrañar in Spanish connotes intimacy, love, affection; it means to “embrace with passionate strength.” It also has a very “visceral” dimension, as entrañas are “entrails,” and the verb entrañarse suggests a total, intimate union with a person. The Spanish mystics used this term to describe union with Christ. Thus fray Luis de León: “Nomb. de Crist. en el del Hijo. Entonces entra en nuestra alma su mismo espíritu, que entrando se entraña en ella y produce en ella luego su gracia.”
