Shlama Akhi George,
Except for the Qnoma of the Son. That is was Incarnated and took for itself a temple of humanity, then we rightfully may call Meshikha a "Person."
You have to understand something about the word "Parsopa" - the literal meaning of this word is "face." In order to have a "face", you must physically exist.
That being said, there are some places in the Bible which refer metaphorically to the "face" of God. But this is not meant to be taken literally.
The definition of Qnoma is an individuated nature. As such, it encapsulates all of the characteristics of its nature.
All characteristics of the Divine nature are present, are encapsulated, within each Qnoma.
Likewise, all human Qnome share the same characteristics which they inherit from the human Nature.
