Milta transcends into reality/concrete expression--ACTUAL manifestation. The essential connotation of the Ineffable became incarnate in man and died as man's sacrificial substitute. Full blast. The Man did it for the REWARD, the euaggelion (euangelion), the right to make created man into His completion--the reality, the concrete expression, the ACTUAL manifestation of the Ineffable--to make us into Him.
Alexander's footnote on John 1:1 states that the Aramaic word Milta has been set aside for only sacred use. Only the Messiah Eashoa is ever to be called the Milta. I think that the way to think of the Milta is to think of the essential connotation of God's love, mercy, grace, patience, integrity, fidelity, etc., manifest literally in Christ, and that Christ in you. It is a package deal.
