Adrienne von Speyr wrote an acclaimed four-volume series of meditations on Saint John's Gospel, and this volume presents her reflections on the Prologue (1:1-18). Her insights embrace the whole Christian revelation as well as its acceptance and rejection by men.

This work is a spiritual meditation of the highest quality, the fruit of prayer, discernment, and communion with the sacramental life of the Church. It provides rich nourishment for both theological reflection and contemplation.
