A word remains just a noise without an acoustic response. Word presupposes an acoustic object, a personal encounter and a communicative touch. In other words, an active utterance must have a passive acoustic relationship. The harmony of activity and passivity proceeds to form a personal dialogue of peace and love.
This primordial will to expression, encounter and dialogue is envisioned in the Word (?? : ho logos) (John 1: 1). It was the life and the light; however, darkness and death now realistically becloud them. The world of sin, rebellion and conflict is in purview. History details a concatenation of willful refusal to hear, strong inclination to revolt, foolhardy challenge to contest and arrogant hostility to self-reflection, all of which lead to pitiful self-destruction. The incarnation of the Word (??) is, albeit full of truth and grace (John 1 : 14), resolute to confront this world of animosity and hostility.
