GENESIS 1:1

                                       
Ha Eretz   Ve Et   Ha Shamaim   Et   Elohim   Bara   Bereshyt
the earth   and <>   the heavens   untrans.   God   created   In the beginning
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth

 

You won't need Bible Codes to figure this one out. Ok first off always remember the Aleph and the Tav grouping of letters is not a spoken word in Hebrew. When Rabbis read this part of the Torah the two letter combination does not make a word as all rather think of it as the Description of Elohim that is Creating and being spoken of in Genesis 1:1 (The scripture referenced above). Moreover this description is also similar to his initials not unlike a signature pronouncing I was here and I am responsible for what was done here. The order is: 1)In the beginning 2)Created 3)Elohim 3) then 4)the Heavens 5)and 6)the Earth. the Et as it is called today is a description of Elohim. It's location is exact center of the sentence and I think it's for good reason.

Keep in mind that Moses was given the Torah, the first five books of what we Christians call the Old Testament of the Canonized Bible. When he was given the words to write down he was given them exactly and wrote them down letter by letter with exacting precision. I have heard that all scribes of the Torah that copied the Torah Scroll would do so with the up most care and attention to detail because to miss a letter or have one out of order is almost tantamount to allowing the universe to unravel or be un-created for the lack of better word. It is also believed by many that once creation was spoken into existence that it is continually spoken into existence, with the effect being that if he stopped speaking our created existence, we would simply be no more. Everything would basically return to the point of when he first started to speak creation. Complete and utter nothingness only him. Even outer space being a in a vacuum state is something measurable and exists. So you can see how important these books are and why it is so important to keep every letter exact and in place. They are the words straight out of the mouth of the creator, and relayed just as exactingly to his servant Moses for the writing of the Torah.

So back to the
. It is a grouping of two letters with a seemingly much deeper significance. Representing time, space, eternity, and everything in between. For instance maybe today a math symbol like might help us to represent the idea of infinity as an eternity. Many people who do not use that symbol, or might have been around prior to it's creation and use, would never have known the significance. So what better way to show that same idea of infinity or stating the beginning and ending of time with any standard alphabet than to use the first and last letters of that alphabet.

Jesus' words in the New Testament were translated into Greek. Since the first letter of the Greek alphabet is Alpha the last letter of the Greek alphabet is Omega they represented a change in language from the original Hebrew text letters in which the first letter in Hebrew is Aleph and the Last letter is Tav. They can be freely exchanged in this manner. In English we would simply state A to Z or AZAZ is not a word in the English language neither is {Alpha Omega} in Greek and as stated earlier neither is {Aleph Tav} in Hebrew. Still keeping in mind of coarse that in Hebrew text is read from right to left so properly written as .

As a side note: It seems very interesting that this two letter grouping would be able to portray the idea of beginning through ending with all alphabets in all languages that have a beginning and an ending letter. In this way his signature and description could be translated into all languages and understood at all times through the ages by mankind around the world even if a specific alphabet might of changed through the century's or millennia.

 

So now we see "The Revealing" actually stated in Revelation not Revelations but (singular) Revelation. The revealing that the creator of all things was the non created Spirit of God indwelt in the form of a man with flesh. (The one we call Jesus of Nazareth) He did not have a created Spirit as we humans do but was the actual same Spirit of the Father the one and only Creator residing in flesh to come and save us from ourselves. There is but one Spirit not two or three but just ONE. Sin has permeated throughout time and has been passed down through all generations of man. We were all hopelessly lost and without any chance of returning to the Garden where we once walked and talked with the Lord, until his planned will of salvation; the only escape from sin being through him that came to earth in the form of a man and gave up his heavenly powers to show us what we could do leading as an example and providing the pure lamb like sacrifice to wash away (not just cover) all sin from the Aleph of time to the Tav of time. Only he was there in the beginning and only he will be there at what some will feel is the ending at Judgment; for the wages of sin is death, and without him the soul is truly dead. We have the promise of an eternity of life for the grateful and blessed that accepted his gift and we will be remaining with him that created the very spirit that resides and has resided in every man, woman, and child born on this earth. SO SMILE!!!

Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha {Aleph} and Omega {Tav}, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
 

Colossians 1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
 

Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

The I AM had no Creator (No Beginning and will have No Ending)
Time seems to be very much a human condition.
