This presents the once (and perhaps still) perceived tension between sarkoqenta and enanqrwpensanta.
Both terms are used by the Fathers in the Creed to describe the Incarnation and in English they seem to mean the same thing but in fact they carry different shades of meaning Yes, the shades are very well expressed in Slavonic as well, using exact equivalents to Greek terms: воплотившагося and вочеловечшася, the former meaning enfleshed (literaly) and the latter human, not just a "man."
