ὡς εἶναι ἓν καὶ ταὐτὸν τὸ φῶς καὶ τὸν θεὸν λόγον. λέγων δὲ δι’ αὐτοῦ γεγενῆσθαι ποτὲ μὲν τὸν κόσμον ποτὲ δὲ τὰ πάντα τὸ ὑπηρετικὸν τοῦ θεοῦ παρίστησιν. δυνάμενος | γοῦν ὁ εὐαγγελιστὴς εἰπεῖν· πάντα ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο, καὶ αὖθις· καὶ ὁ κόσμος ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο, οὐχ ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ ἔφη ἀλλὰ »δι’ αὐτοῦ« [ἦν], ἵν’ ἡμᾶς ἀναπέμψῃ ἐπὶ τὴν τῶν ὅλων ποιητικὴν τοῦ πατρὸς αὐθεντίαν.
