>> LJ: Is not GENHS in MONOGENHS cognate with GENNAW (used in v. 1:13).
>> Why cannot it mean "only-begotton"?


> Only insofar as GENNAW "generate/beget" derives from the root GEN-
> "come-to-be" or "kind/kindred"
> -GENHS derives directly from GEN-

LJ: Doesn't expression hO WN EIS TON KOLPON TOU PATROS indicate a filial-so=
n relationship between MONOGENHS QEOS and PATROS (v. 18)?

Further=2C on your understanding of MONOGENHS=2C how would you translate MO=
NOGENHS in MONOGENOUS PARA PATROS (v. 14)? Note again the juxtaposition of =
this word with PATROS.
