Jt may be paraphrased as follows: As the articulate word drops from t htv Tip -of the speaker lin ear of-hoar t r, so the .Messiah comes from God to man. He Is the vehicle of a mean ing. Not, however, an (unconscious and iroluntary vehicle. For tho Word trrd an eternal existence with God. lie "as God from the beg-ln-nincr.
