monogenes -- another Greek word denoting the "first-born Son of God And here I was, silly me, thinking all along that μονογενες meant only [mono] begotten [genes].
Wouldn't first-born imply that there may be a "second-born?"

"And here I was, silly me, thinking all along that μονογενες meant only [mono] begotten [genes]." It does. I was using that lousey, Great Week missal translation from the 70's by Fr. Papadeas.
