John 1:10
Douay-Rheims
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
Origen
(Hom. 2 in div. loc.) For as, when a person leaves off speaking, his voice ceases to be, and vanishes; so if the Heavenly Father should cease to speak His Word, the effect of that Word, i. e. the universe which is created in the Word, shall cease to exist.
