What it means
A very wide Greek word: a spoken word, a message, an account, and also the reason or order behind things. In John 1 the Word is a person who was with God and was God, through whom everything was made, and who became flesh. John uses the word in the Jewish sense of God's creating word (Genesis 1) and God's wisdom, and in the Greek sense of the ordering reason of the world.
