Word
(Greek, "logos"); (Aramaic, "Memra," used in the Targums, or Hebrew, paraphrases, for "God"). The Greek term means,
(1) a thought or concept;
(2) the expression or utterance of that thought. As a designation of Christ, therefore, Logos is peculiarly felicitous because,
(1) in Him are embodied all the treasures of the divine wisdom, the collective "thought" of God (1 Corinthians 1:24); (Ephesians 3:11); (Colossians 2:2); (Colossians 2:3) and,
(2) He is from eternity, but especially in His incarnation, the utterance or expression of the Person, and "thought" of Deity (John 1:3-5); (John 1:9); (John 1:14-18); (John 14:9-11); (Colossians 2:9).
In the Being, Person, and work of Christ, Deity is told out.
