Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ek tou pleromatos autou {ἐκ τοῦ πληρώματος αὐτοῦ | ek tou plē-rō-ma-tos au-toû} “from His fullness” foregrounds the source from which all benefits flow, with the genitive autou referring back to the Word as the possessor of this fullness.
In context — John 1:16
For from His fullness we have all received, and grace in place of grace.
