I think this is the first time I'm really looking at this biblical passage in-depth. I'd like to find out more in particular about the "Word". I understand it is translated from the Greek "logos" and doesn't really mean "word"/command of God, but something deeper and more difficult to explain in English. Other interpretations say that the "Word" is Jesus the Christ.
[edit:] Anyway, anyone out there know exactly what "logos" means? And why, of all words, was "Word" chosen to interpret "logos"? From what I've read so far about the definition of "logos", the term "Word" seems... misleading. Did bible translators mean for "Word" to be synonymous with God's communication with Man? Take a paragraph or more to translate it, I don't mind.
A friend of mine suggested looking up the word "rhema" in relation to this question. What is your understanding of "rhema"?
Thanks, folks.
