Alpha.


The first letter of the Greek Alphabet, and which also signifies the numeral 1. A title or character of God and of Christ, which points to His eternity as 'the beginning,' 'the first,' the I AM. Rev. 1: 8; Rev. 21: 6; Rev. 22: 13. "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end," or "the first and the last;" which is similar to a passage in Isa. 41: 4: "I Jehovah, the first, and with the last; I am he."
