Some say that this passage is the most beautiful unfolding of who Christ is. It’s poetry. It rolls off the tongue so easily, comes to memory so quickly.
As you read these verses, what impacts you? What questions do you have? What do you learn about Jesus, his purpose and plan?
How many observations can you make about what the text says about “The Word?”

Grace Upon Grace keeps jumping out at me as if it has some special meaning. Is there something to that phrase? What does it mean?

There are two possible translations. One has the sense of grace continues to flow, i.e. waves upon waves of grace. The other option is to understand it in light of the next verse. This translation seems to mean that the grace of Christ replaces the grace of the Law.
It has to do with how one interprets “upon’ in the Greek!
