Romans 1:4
But declared [to be] the Son of God. Though in human form he was
demonstrated to be divine by power, such power as he displayed in
mighty miracles, and especially by the greater miracle of his own
resurrection from the dead.
According to the spirit of holiness. It must be noted that this is
a contrast with "according to the flesh" in Romans 1:3, and hence must
refer to our Lord's holy nature. The body was descended from David, but
the pure, holy life was demonstrated to be divine. One was a human
nature; the other was a divine nature. This nature is spoken of as "the
spirit of holiness", because it is contrasted with sinful flesh.
