Jonathan Mitchell New Testament - Within a beginning there was The Word (The Thought; The Collection of Thoughts; The Idea; The Reason; The Discourse; The Communication; The Verbal Expression). And the Word (the thought; the expression) was (and continued being) facing, directed and moving toward (or: with) God. And the Word (the thought; the idea; the reason; the expression) continued being God. or: Originally the Word was existing and continued to be, and the Word was being {projected} toward God. And the Word, It was existing being God (idiomatically: And the Word was just what God was; And the Expression was {an extension of} Deity).
