Thayer's Greek-English Lexicon to the New Testament, by Joseph H. Thayer, shows
that the word means --
1. to become, i.e. to come into existence, begin to be, receive being: absol. Jn. i 15, 30
(....); Jn. viii. 58 (....); 1 Cor. xv. 37 (....); ek tivos, to be born, Ro. i. 3 (...); Gal. iv. 4 (....);
Mt. xxi. 19 (...., come from); of the origin of all things, Heb. xi. 3; ...., Jn. i. 3, 10.
The words that have been translated "only begotten" in this scripture are actually only one
word in the Greek -- #3439 in Strong's Greek Dictionary and means --
3439. ..... monogenes, mon-og-enace'; from 3441 and 1096; only-born, i.e. sole:- only
(begotten, child).
As you can see, word #3439 comes from the word #3441, which means: ONLY, and word
#1096, which means: TO CAUSE TO BE, COME INTO BEING, TO EXIST --
3441. .... monos, mon'-os; prob. from 3306; remaining, i.e. sole or single; by impl. mere:-
alone, only, by themselves.
1096. .... ginomai, ghin'-om-ahee; a prol. and mid. form of prim. verb; to cause to be
("gen"-erate), i.e. (reflex.) to become (come into being).
The correct translation in the Greek confirms even more that Yeshua the Messiah was BE-
GOTTEN -- which means he was caused to be, in other words, BROUGHT INTO EXISTENCE.
Therefore, the correct translation of John 1:14 is as follows:
According to (or by) the manifestation [Shekinah Glory] flesh was created; and dwelling
among us, who are flesh, and we beholding his glory, was the glory of the ONLY BEGOT-
TEN of the Father, full of honor and truth.
5/. Galatians 4:4. Yeshua "CAME FROM" the Father, just as you and I "came from" our fleshly
fathers. Yeshua clearly had a beginning -- and the apostle Paul tells us what that beginning was --
But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman,
made under the law.
Again, the word translated "MADE" in this scripture is word #1096 in Strong's Greek
Dictionary, and means --
1096. .... ginomai, ghin'-om-ahee; a prol. and mid. form of a prim. verb; to cause to be
("gen"-erate), i.e. (reflex.) to become (come into being),
Thayer's Greek Lexicon again shows us word #1096 to mean --
