Next he adds, “This Word was in the beginning with God.” He had not said these two words together. He had said, “This Word was in the beginning” and “He was with God.” Now he joins the two together. That is why we must so contemplate Jesus Christ that we do not estimate that He is not true God and of the same essence with the Father. He has, to be sure, been created with respect to His human nature, but we must go further to know Him as our eternal God, Who is in such a manner our God that He is the wisdom of His Father which has been with God from all time. That, then, is the summary of it. Now when we remember this exposition (as it is simply expressed) it will suffice to instruct us for our salvation. Surely it is all we need to know about it.
他（約翰）接下來加上，“這道太初與神同在。”他並沒有同時論及那兩個字。他說的是‘太初有道’，和‘道與神同在。’如今他講將兩句話聯在一起。那就是為什麼我們必須凝視耶穌基督，好叫我們不會不把祂當作真神，越不會不把祂當作不與父同質。從祂的人性而言，他當然是被造的，然而我們要進一步認識祂乃是我們永遠的神，祂是如此作為我們的神，好叫祂是與神永遠同在之父的智慧。那，就是這句話的總結。如今，當我們紀念這樣的表述時（就是它直白的表述），它就足以引導我們的救贖。當然，它也就是我們所需要知道的。
