From Background Notes [BN] for Jan 2nd & 3rd written by
Pastor Bob Brown:
To summarize a bit, the Word (Logos)
becomes "flesh" so that all might "see his glory", that is,
his Father's glory, "full of grace and truth (Greek: alÄ“theia).”
This is the meaning of the theological
term "incarnation": to become flesh, and so become visible and
accessible. Logos does not remain hidden or abstract. Instead, he comes from
the Father's "side" and "makes him known" (Greek word for
"exegesis", or "to lead out the meaning"). What is the meaning
of "God"? How do we know what God is truly like? John answers: Look
at Jesus, the "Word-made-flesh.” [BN,4]
