Study Note

'And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace' — the Prologue's final declaration about the Logos-become-flesh asserts inexhaustible divine giving: from Christ's plērōma the community receives wave upon wave of grace. The phrase 'grace for grace' (charin anti charitos) has been interpreted as grace replacing grace (an ever-renewed supply), grace upon grace (accumulative), or the new covenant's grace superseding the old covenant's grace (as verse 17 implies with Moses/law versus Christ/grace-and-truth). The verse has been pivotal in debates about theosis and participating in the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4), suggesting that Christian life involves receiving from Christ's own fullness rather than achieving grace through moral effort.
