14 So the Word became human1:14a Greek became flesh. and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness.1:14b Or grace and truth; also in 1:17. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.
15 John testified about him when he shouted to the crowds, "This is the one I was talking about when I said, ‘Someone is coming after me who is far greater than I am, for he existed long before me.’"
16 From his abundance we have all received one gracious blessing after another.1:16 Or received the grace of Christ rather than the grace of the law; Greek reads received grace upon grace.17 For the law was given through Moses, but God’s unfailing love and faithfulness came through Jesus Christ.
