John 1:1
Douay-Rheims
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John Chrysostom
(Hom. iv. [iii.] in Joan) While all the other Evangelists begin with the Incarnation, John, passing over the Conception, Nativity, education, and growth, speaks immediately of the Eternal Generation, saying, In the beginning was the Word.
