The Prologue of John’s Gospel presents key themes of the Book. This includes the declaration that Jesus of Nazareth is the Logos , the “ Word become flesh .” Life and Light are revealed in him to penitent men and women. He is the true “ Tabernacle ” where God’s “ Glory ” resides, not the tent in the wilderness or the Temple building in Jerusalem. What was foreshadowed in the history of Israel became reality in the “ only-born Son ” of God.
