Journal of Biblical Literature, Vol. 19 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Journal of Biblical Literature, Vol. 19HE question whether the Fourth Gospel is Alexandrian con fronts us at the very beginning, and should be answered as a preliminary to all other questions. Certainly the prologue is Alex andrian. The use of the term Logos; the objective, instead of the merely personified sense, given to it the careful grouping of the two statements that the Logos is both subject and object to God; and, finally, the discussion of his office in the work of creation, which is exactly the place where Alexandrianism brings him into the Divine economy, are conclusive on this point.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
