I need some help on finding sources and doing a discourse analysis on John 1:1-5. My instructions are below.

In this assignment, you will conduct a discourse analysis of John 1:1-5. The assignment should interact with grammatical resources and other sources which may enrich the examination of the verbal forms (e.g., commentaries, monographs, peer-reviewed essays, etc.). The assignment should consist of 18-25 pages of analysis.
