John 1:1-5
from Dove Creek Bible Church's Podcast · host Unknown
The opening verses of the Gospel of John stand as one of the most profound and majestic introductions in all of Scripture. Unlike the Synoptic Gospels, which begin with earthly events, John begins in eternity. John introduces us to the Word (Logos)—a title rich with meaning in both Jewish and Greek thought. To the Jewish reader, “the Word” evoked God’s creative and revelatory power, as seen in the Old Testament. To the Greek mind, it suggested the rational principle that governed the universe. John boldly declares that this Word was not only with God, but was God Himself.
