The message that is life

1 Yhn 1:0–4

13 1-3We are reporting to you and testifying about what existed from the beginning:[ref]Yeshua the messiah and son of God. We heard him, we saw him with our own eyes, and we touched him with our own hands. Concerning the message of life, we can also report and testify to you that that life was revealed[ref]he is the eternal life that was with the father and was revealed to us. We report what we’ve seen and what we’ve heard so that you all also can have fellowship with us, and our fellowship is with the father and with his son. 4We’re writing all this so that our joy may be extended to you also.

Yhn 1:1:

1In the beginning was the message,[fn] and the message was with God, and the message was and is God.


1:1 TD: This passage is complex to translate because the message was also the messenger—that is, Yeshua came not only to teach about getting saved, but also to become the actual way to be saved!

Yhn 1:14:

14And the message became a human and lived here among us and we saw his greatness—the greatness of an only child of the father—full of grace and truth.
