Logos was behind the falling of the leaves and the growing of seeds. In addition for Philo, the logos was the intermediary between God and humanity. In Hebrew, however, the Word is not rational and distant, in the Hebrew tradition the Dabhar or God, the Word is personal, present, and creative. There are for us too many words. There are newspapers, magazines, and books.
Signs litter the highways and landscapes.
There is radio and television in which silence is never allowed. The boxes provide constant sound, constant words. We can't escape the tyranny of words, but they are words that bring life. They are all too often empty words, useless words. In contrast, the Word of Hebrew scripture is creative, it is life giving, it brings all of creation out of nothing.
