Near to profound. Not quite. René Descartes in 1637. Biblical text like 2000 years ago. But not even close.
Logos was itself and labeled itself?
John 1:1 In the beginning was the logos, the logos was with God and was god. John 1:14 ... the logos become flesh. John 10:34 Jesus replied, “It is written in your own Scriptures that God said to certain leaders of the people, ‘I say, you are gods!’
People are gods, began as thought a thought-god, thinking their way into existence into the flesh?
logos thought/word or cognition capabilities
Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting One's Reason and of Seeking Truth in the Sciences (French: Discours de la Méthode Pour bien conduire sa raison, et chercher la vérité dans les sciences) is a philosophical and autobiographical treatise published by René Descartes in 1637. It is best known as the source of the famous quotation "Je pense, donc je suis" (English: "I think, therefore I am", or "I am thinking, therefore I exist" ),[1] which occurs in Part IV of the work. A similar argument, without this precise wording, is found in Meditations on First Philosophy (1641), and a Latin version of the same statement Cogito, ergo sum is found in Principles of Philosophy (1644). wikipedia

It does I think after all fall a little short.
