| 1:5 | κατελαβεν:overcame | [overcame] – The Gospel's opening conflict of light and darkness takes the "overcome" sense: the light shines, and the darkness does not overcome it. The same verb resurfaces as "overtake" in the warning of 12:35, so the thread stays intact. |
(6) Εγενετο:Came-to-be ανθρωποϲ:a-man απεϲταλμενοϲ:having-been-sent παρα:from θεου:god ονομα:name αυτω:to-him ιωαννηϲ:John (7) ουτοϲ:This-one ηλθεν:came ειϲ:for μαρτυριαν:witness ινα:that μαρτυρηϲη:he-might-bear-witness περι:about του:the φωτοϲ:light ινα:that παντεϲ:all πιϲτευϲωϲιν:might-believe δι:through αυτου:him (8) Ουκ:Not ην:was εκεινοϲ:that-one το:the φωϲ:light αλλ:but ινα:that μαρτυρηϲη:he-might-bear-witness περι:about του:the φωτοϲ:light

| 1:7 | πιϲτευϲωϲιν:might-believe | [might-believe] – John's witness exists so that all might believe "into" the light — the Gospel's covenant-allegiance sense of πιστεύω, directed through the sent one to the one who sent him. |
(9) Ην:Was το:the φωϲ:light το:the αληθινον:true ο:which φωτιζει:enlightens παντα:every ανθρωπον:man ερχομενον:coming ειϲ:into τον:the κοϲμον:world (10) εν:In τω:the κοϲμω:world ην:he-was και:and ο:the κοϲμοϲ:world δι:through αυτου:him εγενετο:came-to-be και:and ο:the κοϲμοϲ:world αυτον:him ουκ:not εγνω:knew (11) ειϲ:To τα:his-own ιδια:own ηλθεν:he-came και:and οι:the ιδιοι:own-people αυτον:him ου:not παρελαβον:received (12) Οϲοι:As-many-as δε:however ελαβον:received αυτον:him εδωκεν:he-gave αυτοιϲ:to-them εξουϲιαν:authority τεκνα:children θεου:of-god γενεϲθαι:to-become τοιϲ:to-those πιϲτευουϲιν:believing ειϲ:into το:the ονομα:name αυτου:of-him (13) οι:who ουκ:not εκ:from αιματων:bloods ουδε:nor εκ:from θεληματοϲ:will ϲαρκοϲ:of-flesh ουδε:nor εκ:from θεληματοϲ:will ανδροϲ:of-man αλλ:but εκ:from θεου:of-god εγεννηθηϲαν:were-born

| 1:12 | πιϲτευουϲιν:believing | [believing] – Believing "into" his name is the allegiance that receives the authority to become children of God; the established gloss holds this covenantal sense across the book. |
(14) Και:And ο:the λογοϲ:word ϲαρξ:flesh εγενετο:became και:and εϲκηνωϲεν:tabernacled εν:among ημιν:us και:and εθεαϲαμεθα:we-beheld την:the δοξαν:glory αυτου:of-him δοξαν:glory ωϲ:as μονογενουϲ:of-only-begotten παρα:from πατροϲ:Father πληρηϲ:full χαριτοϲ:of-grace και:and αληθειαϲ:of-truth (15) Ιωαννηϲ:John μαρτυρει:bears-witness περι:about αυτου:him και:and κεκραγεν:has-cried-out λεγων:saying Ουτοϲ:This-one ην:was ον:of-whom ειπον:I-said ο:the οπιϲω:after μου:me ερχομενοϲ:coming εμπροϲθεν:before μου:me γεγονεν:has-come-to-be οτι:because πρωτοϲ:first μου:than-me ην:he-was (16) Οτι:For εκ:from του:the πληρωματοϲ:fullness αυτου:of-him ημειϲ:we παντεϲ:all ελαβομεν:received και:and χαριν:grace αντι:instead-of χαριτοϲ:grace (17) Οτι:For ο:the νομοϲ:law δια:through μωυϲεωϲ:Moses εδοθη:was-given η:the χαριϲ:grace και:and η:the αληθεια:truth δια:through ιηϲου:Jesus χριϲτου:Christ εγενετο:came-to-be (18) Θεον:God ουδειϲ:no-one εωρακεν:has-seen πωποτε:ever μονογενηϲ:only-begotten θεοϲ:god ο:the-one ων:being ειϲ:in τον:the κολπον:bosom του:of-the πατροϲ:Father εκεινοϲ:that-one εξηγηϲατο:declared

| 1:14 | μονογενουϲ:of-only-begotten | [of-only-begotten] – "Only-begotten" preserves the unique filial status of the son, echoing the Isaac-typology (Gen 22:2 LXX) that presents the son as the supreme agent of the Father. |
| 1:18 | μονογενηϲ:only-begotten | [only-begotten] – The unique agent, the one who rests in the Father's bosom, is the sole qualified declarer of the Father; the gloss keeps the filial-agent frame. |

| 1:23 | κυριου:of-Lord | [of-Lord] – The voice prepares the way of the Lord (Isa 40:3) — the one God of Israel, the Father. The book-wide convention reserves the capital "Lord" for him alone. |

| 1:32 | το:the πνευμα:spirit | [the spirit] – The descending spirit is God's empowering presence; the book-wide convention renders it lowercase, marking it as the Father's agency at work on and through the sent one. |
| 1:33 | το:the πνευμα:spirit; πνευματι:spirit αγιω:holy | [spirit holy] – The sign of the spirit descending and remaining identifies the one who baptizes in spirit holy — the same lowercase, presence-and-agency rendering. |

| 2:4 | ωρα:hour | [hour] – "Hour" is the Gospel's thread of the divinely appointed time of glorification. Here it is "not yet"; the thread reaches its "has come" at 12:23, 13:1 and 17:1. |

| 2:14 | ιερω:temple | [temple] – The sanctuary-precincts are consistently "temple" (ἱερόν); the inner shrine-word (ναός) is reserved for "sanctuary" and, climactically, for the body of the sent one. |
| 2:15 | ιερου:temple | [temple] – The same precincts-word in the expulsion: the temple-courts, not the inner shrine, are cleansed. |
| 2:19 | ναον:sanctuary | [sanctuary] – "Destroy this sanctuary" — the inner-shrine word that the narrator identifies with Jesus' body (2:21); the precinct/shrine distinction is the book's fixed convention. |
| 2:20 | ναοϲ:sanctuary | [sanctuary] – The Jews answer in the same shrine-word, taking it as the building; the fixed distinction keeps their misunderstanding and Jesus' meaning visible. |

| 2:23 | επιϲτευϲαν:believed | [believed] – Many believe "into" his name at the feast, beholding the signs; the same verb then takes its other sense in the next verse. |

| 3:36 | πιϲτευων:believing; ζωην:life αιωνιον:age-lasting | [believing / life age-lasting] – Allegiance to the son is the possession of the age-lasting life; the disobeying one remains under the wrath of God. The glosses keep the allegiance/antonym pair visible. |

| 13:1 | ωρα:hour | [hour] – The appointed hour of glorification has come: the hour of passing from this world to the Father. The thread that began at 2:4 ("not yet") here reaches its decisive arrival. |
| 13:1 | ηγαπηϲεν:he-loved | [he-loved] – The love of the sent one for his own, loved "into the end": the book-wide convention renders both Greek love-verbs as "love," since the Gospel alternates them without a change of sense, and the love is the completion-bound of the mission. |
| 13:18 | τρωγων:chewing | [chewing] – The scripture-citation retains the same "chew" verb used in the bread-of-life discourse; the one who chews my bread and lifts his heel is marked by the meal-sign. |
| 13:19 | πιϲτευϲητε:you-might-believe | [you-might-believe] – The word spoken beforehand is ordered to allegiance: when it comes to pass, the disciples might believe that the sent one is the "I am" bearing the divine self-disclosure. |
| 13:19 | εγω:I ειμι:am | [I am] – The self-designation of the sent one, announced before the event so that the disciples' allegiance may rest on the disclosure of the one God at work in him. |

| 13:26 | ψωμιον:morsel | [morsel] – The dipped morsel is the identifying sign of the betrayer at the table; "morsel" keeps the bread-word precise within the Gospel's bread-thread. |
| 13:27 | ϲαταναϲ:Adversary | [Adversary] – After the morsel, the Adversary enters Judas; the established rendering names the accusing opponent of the covenant-frame. |

| 13:34 | αγαπατε:you-might-love / ηγαπηϲα:I-loved / αγαπατε:might-love | [you-might-love / I-loved / might-love] – The new-commandment love reproduces the love of the sent one; the two Greek love-verbs are both rendered "love," the convention that keeps the mutual-allegiance frame visible. |
| 13:37 | ψυχην:life / θηϲω:I-will-lay-down | [life / I-will-lay-down] – Peter's pledge to lay down his life: ψυχή is consistently "life" in the Gospel, and the laying-down verb is the same one the shepherd-discourse uses for giving life for the sheep. |
| 13:38 | ψυχην:life / θηϲειϲ:You-will-lay-down | [life / You-will-lay-down] – Jesus turns the pledge back on Peter with the identical vocabulary: the life is laid down, but not yet — the denial will come first. |

| 14:1 | πιϲτευετε:Believe | [Believe] – The twofold call to allegiance: believe into the one God and believe into the sent one. The same πιστεύω frame unites the two objects in the Gospel's covenant-allegiance sense. |
| 14:6 | εγω:I ειμι:am | [I am] – The self-designation of the sent one with the predicates way, truth, and life; the one God is known through him, and no one comes to the Father except through this agent. |
| 14:6 | αληθεια:truth | [truth] – The truth is the reliable self-disclosure of the one God present in the sent one — the truth-witness that defines the whole Gospel. |
| 14:10 | πιϲτευειϲ:you-believe | [you-believe] – Allegiance to the sent one is grounded in the mutual indwelling of the Father and the sent one; the works the Father does are the ground of belief. |
| 14:11 | πιϲτευετε:Believe / πιϲτευετε:believe | [Believe / believe] – The call to believe the sent one's testimony about the mutual indwelling, and, failing that, to believe on the evidence of the works themselves. |
| 14:12 | πιϲτευων:believing | [believing] – The one believing into the sent one will do the works of the sent one, and greater works, because the sent one goes to the Father; the allegiance-sense of πιστεύω is the premise of the promise. |

| 14:15 | αγαπατε:you-love | [you-love] – Love for the sent one is the covenant-condition that issues in keeping the commandments; both Greek love-verbs are rendered "love" in line with the book-wide convention. |
| 14:16 | παρακλητον:paraclete | [paraclete] – The paraclete, "another" alongside the sent one's advocacy: one who speaks alongside, the Father's gift in response to the sent one's request. |
| 14:17 | πνευμα:spirit τηϲ:of-the αληθειαϲ:truth | [spirit of-the truth] – The spirit of the truth, lowercased as the empowering presence of God, remains with the disciples and will be in them; the world cannot receive it. |
| 14:21 | αγαπων:loving / αγαπηθηϲεται:will-be-loved / αγαπηϲω:will-love | [loving / will-be-loved / will-love] – Love for the sent one is answered by the Father's love and by the self-disclosure of the sent one; the love-cycle is the mutual allegiance of the covenant community. |
| 14:23 | αγαπα:loves / αγαπηϲει:will-love | [loves / will-love] – The one who loves the sent one keeps his word, and the Father and the sent one come and make a dwelling; the love-vocabulary remains the same throughout. |
| 14:24 | αγαπων:loving | [loving] – The one not loving the sent one does not keep his words; the word belongs to the Father who sent him — love and allegiance are inseparable. |
| 14:26 | παρακλητοϲ:paraclete / πνευμα:spirit αγιον:holy | [paraclete / spirit holy] – The paraclete, the spirit holy, is sent by the Father in the name of the sent one to teach and to remind; the spirit is lowercased as God's empowering presence, and "paraclete" preserves its role as the continuing advocate alongside the community. |

| 14:28 | ηγαπατε:you-loved | [you-loved] – The rejoicing of love belongs to the disciples' recognition that the sent one returns to the Father; the love-verb is rendered with the book's consistent "love" gloss. |
| 14:29 | πιϲτευϲητε:you-might-believe | [you-might-believe] – The word spoken beforehand is ordered to allegiance: when it comes to pass, the disciples might believe in the sent one's bond with the Father. |
| 14:30 | αρχων:ruler | [ruler] – The ruler of this world approaches, who has nothing in the sent one; the established gloss names the accusing power that holds sway over the present age. |
| 14:31 | αγαπω:I-love | [I-love] – The world must know that the sent one loves the Father and does exactly as the Father commanded; the love-verb here binds the mission to the obedience of the sent one. |

| 15:4 | μεινατε:Abide | [Abide] – The book-wide convention renders this verb "abide" when it denotes the mutual indwelling of the covenant community — the branches abiding in the vine — while the same verb is "remain" when it denotes staying in a place. |
| 15:10 | μενειτε:you-will-abide; μενω:I-abide | [you-will-abide / I-abide] – Keeping the commandments issues in abiding, and the sent one himself abides in the Father's love; the same abiding-convention governs both clauses. |

| 17:20 | πιϲτευοντων:believing | [believing] – The prayer extends to those who will believe through the word of the disciples; the allegiance-sense of πιστεύω marks the community's mission. |
| 17:21 | πιϲτευη:might-believe | [might-believe] – The unity of the community is for the sake of the world's allegiance: "that the world might believe that you sent me"; πιστεύω is the world's response to the sent one. |

| 18:5 | εγω:I ειμι:am | [I am] – The sent one's self-designation bearing the divine self-disclosure; the "I am" here causes the arresting party to draw back and fall, revealing the presence of the one God at work in the agent he sent. |
| 18:6 | εγω:I ειμι:am | [I am] – The same self-designation uttered as the cohort falls; the name-theology frame presents the one God's self-disclosure as present and active in the sent one. |
| 18:8 | εγω:I ειμι:am | [I am] – The sent one speaks the self-designation again while protecting the disciples, fulfilling the word that he lost none of those the Father gave him; the book-wide convention keeps the "I am" lowercased as the sent agent's self-designation. |

| 18:36 | βαϲιλεια:kingdom | [kingdom] – The royal-Messianic frame of the Gospel shapes the word: the kingdom of the sent one is not from this world, a two-ages reality, not an earthly territory; the established "kingdom" gloss preserves its Messianic and eschatological weight. |
| 18:37 | μαρτυρηϲω:I-might-bear-witness | [I-might-bear-witness] – The juridical witness-structure of the book: the sent one's kingly work is to bear witness to the truth, giving public testimony to the covenant-faithfulness of the one God. |
| 18:37 | αληθειαϲ:truth | [truth] – Truth throughout the Gospel is covenant-faithfulness and reliability, the truth-witness of the sent one; those who are of the truth hear the voice of the one who testifies to the Father. |
| 18:38 | αληθεια:truth | [truth] – Pilate's question stands within the Gospel's truth-frame: the truth is the reliable self-disclosure of the one God present in the sent one, not a philosophical abstraction. |

Lexical Decisions:
| Verse | Greek → English | Decision Comments |
|---|---|---|
| 21:15-17 | κυριε:lord | [lord] – The threefold address to the risen sent one, lowercased as throughout the Gospel. |
| 21:15-17 | αγαπαϲ:do-you-love; φιλω:I-love | [do-you-love / I-love] – The two Greek love-verbs are rendered by the single English "love", since the Gospel alternates them without a change of sense; the threefold exchange restores Peter after his threefold denial. |
| 21:15-17 | βοϲκε:feed; ποιμαινε:shepherd | [feed / shepherd] – The two shepherd-verbs are kept distinct: "feed" for the lambs and "shepherd" for the flock, echoing the shepherd-discourse of the good shepherd. |
| 21:22-23 | μενειν:to-remain | [to-remain] – The risen one's "if I will him to remain" is a staying in place; the book's convention uses "remain" for this spatial-temporal sense, and "abide" for the mutual indwelling of the community. |
| 21:24 | μαρτυρων:bearing-witness; μαρτυρια:testimony | [bearing-witness / testimony] – The closing colophon names the disciple who bears witness and writes; the witness-words carry the Gospel's juridical frame, rendering what was seen for the readers. |
