WEEK OF JULY 21 - 27
FROM RABBI ADRIAN
The Alef and Tav, Part V
Now that we had a couple of weeks of fun with the Alef and Tav, let us discovery what Yeshua meant when He said He was the Beginning and the End. In the Book of Revelation, it reads, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End” (22:13). What does this mean?
In plain text, Yeshua is three-peating the same concept. This is called a rabbinical triplet. Oftentimes, when the Second-Temple rabbis taught, they used doublets and triplets to convey their teaching. Yeshua was no different. Thus, if Yeshua says it three times in three distinct ways, it is very important. Why?
If God says it once—it is important; twice—pay attention because it is very important; three times—do not ignore it, because it is life changing. When Yeshua calls Himself the Alpha/Alef and Omega/Tav, He is referring to His eternity. Therefore, in Revelation 1:8 when He states, “’I am the Alpha and the Omega,’ says Adonai Elohim, ‘Who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty!’” He is, in essence, calling Himself God. This brings us to Isaiah where it states, “Thus says Adonai, Israel’s King and his Redeemer, Adonai-Tzva’ot: ‘I am the first, and the last, and there is no God beside Me’” (44:6). Therefore, He is quite clearly confirming to John that He is the one who has established the heavens and earth. That He is eternal. Not His human nature, but His divine. The Book of Hebrews states, “This Son is the radiance of His glory and the imprint of His being, upholding all things by His powerful word. When He had made purification for our sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. Thus He became as far above the angels as the name He has inherited is more excellent than theirs” (Hebrews 1:3-4).
Lastly, “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created—in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen, whether thrones or angelic powers or rulers or authorities. All was created through Him and for Him. He exists before everything, and in Him all holds together. He is the head of the body, His community. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead—so that He might come to have first place in all things. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, making peace through the blood of His cross—whether things on earth or things in heaven!” (Colossians 1:15-20). He truly is the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last, and the Alef and Tav.
Shabbat Shalom!
