Yochanan 1:14-18

Yochanan 1:14-18 TOJB2011

And the Dvar HASHEM did mitgashem (become bodily) and made his Sukkah, his Mishkan (Tabernacle) among us, and we gazed upon his Shekhinah, the Shechinah of the Ben Yachid from Elohim HaAv, full of HASHEMʼs Chesed v'Emes. And Yochanan gives solemn edut (testimony) about him and has cried out, This was he about whom I said, Hu HaBah (He who comes) after me is really before me in priority, because, before I came to be, he was. For from the kol melo (all the plentitude) of him we all received Chesed upon Chesed. Because the matan Torah (giving of the Torah) was graciously bestowed through Moshe, but Chesed and Emes of HASHEM came through [Rebbe], Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua. No one has ever seen HASHEM. It is Elohim the Ben Yachid, it is he, the one being in the kheyk (bosom) of HaAv, this one is HASHEMʼs definitive midrash (exegesis).
