Name Theology in John 1:14

What is it about?

In his recent studies, Jörg Frey has proposed that the biblical tradition of Shekhina can be discerned in the expression of the Logos’ dwelling among the believers in John 1:14. Interacting with Frey, this study proposes that Name theology, which account for the temple’s connection with the name of the Lord in the Old Testament, is utilized in John 1:14. The name of the Lord in connection with the temple can be a useful resource to explain the paradoxical identity of the Logos as well as the usage of the glory in the verse. Furthermore, this Name theology can coexist with the biblical tradition of Shekhina in John 1:14.
