Exegesis
The second prepositional phrase pros ton theon {πρὸς τὸν θεόν | pros ton theón} combines pros with the accusative to express not only spatial proximity but an orientation ‘toward’ or ‘face to face with’ God, indicating intimate personal relationship. The Greek word order places houtos early for emphasis and ends with theon for climactic focus on the divine relationship. In English, the demonstrative is brought into clear subject position as “This One” or “He,” and pros is rendered “with” in the relational sense of shared presence, preserving both the temporal setting and the theological emphasis on eternal coexistence.
In context — John 1:2
This One was in the beginning with God .
