This passage is different in its structure than any other passage in the gospels, including the rest of John. It is poetically theological, and serves as an introduction to everything else John is going to say in his gospel. John revolves around themes that will continue to appear throughout his account, such as: God life light/truth grace world glory belief/faith/receiving Through the book of John, Jesus repeatedly shows himself to be different than what people expect. He is gloriously better than we expect and, perhaps, than we desire. It is only those with eyes to see his glory as glory (those born of the will of God, 1:13) who will receive him rather than reject him.
