The Logos
Within Hellenistic Judaism, Philo (c. 20 BC – c. 50 AD) integrated the term into Jewish philosophy.[8] Philo distinguished between logos prophorikos ("the utterer word or speaker"), logos spermatikos ("the speech") and the logos endiathetos ("the word remaining within").[9]
The Gospel of John identifies the Christian Logos, through which all things are made, as divine (theos),[10] and further identifies Jesus Christ as the incarnate Logos. Early translators of the Greek New Testament, such as Jerome (in the 4th century AD), experienced frustration with the inadequacy of any single Latin word to convey the meaning of the word logos as used to describe Jesus Christ in the Gospel of John
