John & the Logos (Gospel of John pt. 5) In today's lesson, we delve into the profound concept of the Logos, a pivotal term from John's Gospel that bridges Greek philosophy and biblical theology.
We begin by exploring the Greek word 'Logos,' traditionally translated as "Word," and its deep roots in ancient philosophical texts, including its usage by philosophers like Heraclitus and later by the Stoics. The lesson highlights how the Gospel of John presents Jesus as the divine Logos—embodying reason, order, and the active principle that continuously shapes the universe. Join us to explore how this ancient concept enriches our understanding of Jesus as the "Word of God" and our interpretation of the scriptures. Summary of the Greek Concept of Logos (PDF) - Click Here

Why 153 Fish in John 21?Why does John include the detail about 153 fish in John 21?
This video is a clipping from a lesson on the Sea of Galilee - Fishing and the Miracle of 153 Fish (John 21:11) The ancient mystics, both Hebrew and Greek, loved unique number sequences such as triangle numbers. 153 is part of a series of numbers known as 'Triangle Numbers' - see here - as is the 17th number in the series. So we could say, '153 is the triangle of 17.' Join us as we explore the mystical meaning of 153! |
