There is your perfectly acceptable translation of Jn. 1:1. Word order does change when translating.

I took 2 years of Greek language at CLC. Our focus was on grammar and translantion.
Ok I am hit with "word order" by the Trins.

The key for me is how it is written and spoken IN THE GREEK.

Lets forget translating it into English for now. If indeed the Greek was the original thats whats more important.
