The Word Made Flesh
The Prologue of the Gospel of John presents key themes that are expanded in the Book. Most critically, Jesus is the Logos , the “ Word become flesh ” in whom Life and Light are revealed 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. John employs imagery from the history of Israel to illustrate what God now provides us in His “ only born Son .”
