Yochanan I 4:8-10

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁸ The one not having ahavah did not have da’as of Hashem, because Hashem is ahavah.

⁹ By this was made hisgalus of the ahavah of Hashem among us, because Hashem has sent His Ben Yechid into the Olam Hazeh that we may live through Him. [Yn 3:16]

¹⁰ In this is ahavah, not that we have had ahavah for Hashem, but that Hashem had ahavah for us and gave His Ben HaElohim as a kapporah for chattoteinu.
