Answer: C) Antithesis.

Explanation: Antithesis is a rhetorical device in which two opposite ideas are put together in a sentence to achieve a contrasting effect. Antithesis emphasizes the idea of contrast by parallel structures of the contrasted phrases or clauses. The given sentence is a clear example of antithesis that contrasts the ideas of humanity and divinity by putting them together in a phrase.
