The Word became Flesh

The Eternal Word incarnate in BEN ELOHIM

1:1 In the beginning was the Dvar, and the Dvar was with Elohim (אלהים), and the Dvar was Elohim (אלהים).

1:2 The same was in the beginning with Elohim (אלהים).

The Preincarnate work

(Kolosae 1:16-17; Hebrews 1:2)

1:3 All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made.

1:4 In Him was Chayim; and the Chayim was the Ohr (light) of men.

1:5 And the Ohr (light) shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

1:6 There was a man sent from Elohim (אלהים), whose name [was] Yochanan.

1:7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Ohr (light), that all [men] through him might believe.

1:8 He was not that Ohr (light), but [was sent] to bear witness of that Ohr (light).

1:9 [That] was the true Ohr (light), which Ohr (light) every man that cometh into the Olam Hazeh.

1:10 He was in the Olam Hazeh, and the Olam Hazeh was made by him, and the Olam Hazeh knew him not.

1:11 He came unto His own, and His own received him not.

1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the Benai Elohim (אלהים), [even] to them that believe on His Name:

1:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of Elohim (אלהים).

1:14 And the Dvar was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His Kavod, the Kavod as of the only begotten of Ha AVI,) full of Chesed and Emet.

1:15

Yochanan bare witness of Him, and cried, saying:

This was He of whom I spake, He that cometh after Me is preferred before me: for He was before Me.

1:16 And of his fulness have all we received, and Chesed upon Chesed.

1:17 For the Torah was given by Mosheh, [but] Chesed ve Emet came by Yeshua (ישוע) Moshiach.

1:18 No man hath seen Elohim (אלהים) at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of Ha AVI, he hath declared [him].

The Eidut Yochanan the Immerser:

1:19 And this is the record of Yochanan, when the Yehudim sent Kohenim and Leviim from Yerushalayim to ask him, Who art thou?

1:20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Moshiach.

1:21

And they asked him: What then? Art thou YeshaYahu?

And he saith: I am not.

Art thou that Navi?

And he answered: No.

1:22

Then said they unto him:

Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

1:23 He said:

I [am] the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the YHWH (יהוה), as said the Navi YeshaYahu.

1:24 And they which were sent were of the Perushim.

1:25 And they asked him, and said unto him:

Why mikveh thou then, if thou be not that Moshiach, nor YeshaYahu, neither that Navi?

1:26

Yochanan answered them, saying:

I mikveh with Mayim: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;

1:27

He it is, who coming after Me is preferred before Me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

1:28 These things were done in Beit AnYah beyond Yarden, where Yochanan was immersing.

1:29 The next day Yochanan seeth Yeshua (ישוע) coming unto him, and saith:

Hinnei  Seh Elohim (אלהים), which taketh away the sin of the Olam Hazeh.

1:30 This is HE of whom I said, After Me cometh a Man which is preferred before me: for He was before Me.

1:31 And I knew Him not: but that He should be made manifest to Yisrael, therefore am I come immersing with Mayim.

1:32

And Yochanan bare record, saying:

I saw the Ruach descending from Shamayim like a dove, and it abode upon him.

1:33 And I knew Him not: but he that sent Me to mikveh with Mayim, the same said unto Me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Ruach descending, and remaining on Him, the same is he which mikveh with the Ruach HaKodesh.

1:34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the BEN Elohim (אלהים).

In Search of Talmidim

1:35 Again the next day after Yochanan stood, and two of his Talmidim;

1:36 And looking upon Yeshua (ישוע) as He walked,

He saith:

Hinnei seh Elohim (אלהים)!

1:37 And the two Talmidim heard Him speak, and they followed Yeshua (ישוע).

1:38 Then Yeshua (ישוע) turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye?

They said unto him:

Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?

1:39

He saith unto them:

Come and see.

They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.

1:40 One of the two which heard Yochanan [speak], and followed Him, was Andreas, Shimon Kefa's brother.

1:41 He first findeth his own brother Shimon, and saith unto him, We have found the Moshiach, which is, being interpreted, the Moshiach.

1:42 And he brought him to Yeshua (ישוע). And when Yeshua (ישוע) beheld him,

He said:

Thou art Shimon Bar Yochanan: thou shalt be called Kefa, which is by interpretation, A rock.

Yeshua (ישוע) calls Philip and Natan'el

1:43 The day following Yeshua (ישוע) would go forth into Galil, and findeth Philippos, and saith unto him, Follow Me.

1:44 Now Philippos was of Beit Zata, the city of Andreas and Kefa.

1:45

Philippos findeth Natan'el, and saith unto him:

We have found him, of whom Mosheh in the Torah, and the Neviim, did write, Yeshua (ישוע) Natzeret, Ben Yosef.

1:46

And Natan'el said unto him:

Can there any good thing come out of Natzeret?

Philippos saith unto him:

Come and see.

1:47 Yeshua (ישוע) saw Natan'el coming to him, and saith of him, Hinnei an Yisraelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

1:48

Natan'el saith unto him:

Whence knowest thou me?

Yeshua (ישוע) answered and said unto him:

Before that Philippos called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

1:49

Natan'el answered and saith unto Him:

Rabbi, thou art the BEN Elohim (אלהים); thou art the Melekh Yisrael.

1:50

Yeshua (ישוע) answered and said unto him,

Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

1:51

And Yeshua (ישוע) saith unto him:

Truly, Truly, I say unto you,

Hereafter ye shall see Shamayim open, and the Malakim  Elohim (אלהים) ascending and descending upon the Ben Adam.
