Or do you still have Jesus coming into the world, and popping back in the womb when rejected, and popping back out at 1:14
"I've never had that. That is just as stupid as the teaching above. What stupid person would suggest such a stupid thing?"
Like it or not, you do say that as you think the following is referring to Jesus and not the Father. 1:11 - He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
In your story, he goes home to mummy, jumps back in the womb and pops back out at 1:14, to test the waters again ------------- Following is what the first 13 verses are about, or WHO they are about. Mal 3:1 - Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to the temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith Yehowah of hosts.
Hence the 1st 13 verses are the OT recap, who and what was and what his word brings and means. Introducing Yehowah the Father, so you know who the Son is and from, the reason the Book of John was written for.
