In this lesson, we delve into the profound significance of John 1:14, a verse that stands at the heart of Christian belief. "The Word (Logos) became flesh (Sarx) and dwelt (tabernacled) among us." But what does this truly mean? How can the eternal Logos, the Word of God, take on the form of temporary flesh? Join us as we explore this paradox and consider what John means by using the Greek term ‘Sarx’ for flesh. What are the implications of this statement? Finally, we'll uncover the rich imagery of the Tabernacle from the book of Exodus, understanding how John portrays God's presence as now dwelling—'tabernacling'—among us in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. This exploration not only deepens our understanding of scripture but also enriches our faith journey. Join us in this insightful study of one of Christianity's most essential truths.
