for - Pros. It directs attention to the object when reached, or when the subject is at, or with the object. 'The Word was with (pros) God,' John 1.1. Eis 'with a view to' here, and 'at' three times, ver. 13, refers to the object in the mind of the person. See Mark 11.1, where 'to' (twice) is eis, and 'at' is pros. Christ - Or 'of the Christ.'
