Question

Hans Urs von Balthasar noted the use of the verb exegesato in the final verse of this passage to argue that God is his own exegete. Because the earliest manuscripts lack punctuation, it is ambiguous whether the phrase ho gegonen in the third verse of this passage is part of the previous or the succeeding sentence. Apart (15[1])from Revelation, this passage is the only place in the New Testament to use the verb skenoo (“skeno-o”), which literally means “to pitch a tent” or “to tabernacle.” This passage notes, (15[1])“the law indeed was given through (*) Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” after describing Jesus as “full of grace and truth.” This passage describes Jesus as “the true light… coming into the world” which “shines in the darkness” and notes that “through him all things were made.” (10[1])For 10 points, what passage of the Fourth Gospel declares that “the Word (10[1])became flesh”? ■END■
