#158 - Hebrew Background to Word and Wisdom - Gospel of John (pt. 7)
Join us in exploring the profound connection between the Hebrew concepts of "Word" (Dabar) and "Wisdom" (Chokmah) and the Greek Logos, as presented in the Gospel of John.
While the Gospel of John is written in Greek and uses the term Logos to describe the "Word," it is essential to understand the rich Jewish heritage that shapes John's portrayal of Jesus as the pre-existent Word and Wisdom.
In this video, we delve into the Hebrew Bible, revealing how both the Word and Wisdom were present at the beginning of creation.
The Word of God not only creates but also heals, saves, and accomplishes the divine will. Similarly, Wisdom is depicted as holding sway over the nations, bringing order to the cosmos.
Discover how John, with his Jewish background, uses the concept of Logos to bridge the infinite, transcendent God with finite creation, portraying Jesus as the divine intermediary present from the beginning.
This video provides a deeper understanding of the biblical narrative and enriches your comprehension of how the Hebrew Bible's presentation of Word and Wisdom informs John's theological framework.
