Like Passions

The following verses use a word which describes the similar nature human beings share with each other. Elijah was a man with passions like us. Paul and Barnabas were men with passions like us. This word is not used with reference to Jesus and humanity.

Ac 14:15 and saying, "Men, why are you doing these things? We are also men of the same <3663> nature <3663> as you, and preach the gospel to you that you should turn from these vain things to a living God, WHO MADE THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH AND THE SEA AND ALL THAT IS IN THEM.

Jas 5:17 Elijah was a man with a nature <3663> like <3663> ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.

The word "likeness" does describe the nature of Jesus, in passages such as Romans 8:3 and Philippians 2:7:

Ro 8:3 For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness <3667> of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,

Php 2:7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness <3667> of men.

Notice the parallelism which exists between the expressions "likeness of sinful flesh" and "likeness of men". When Romans says Jesus was sent in the likeness of sinful flesh, it is really saying Jesus was sent in the likeness of men and vice versa.
