Jesus is the First and the Last!!!

Genesis 1:1 to Revelation 22:21:

Let’s look at the letter that the Word of God begins and ends with to see if we can see anything significant. 

Genesis 1:1 says, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” We must look to the original Hebrew text to see what the first letter used is. Below is the verse in Hebrew:

בְּרֵאשִׁית בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ׃

The first letter is בְּ which is the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet called “Bet”

Now let's look at the last word in scripture. The last verse is Revelation 22:21 which says, “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.”  So amen is the last word, in Greek this is the word ἀμήν, but is derived from the Hebrew word אָמֵן, and Hebrew is read right to left, so the last letter is ן, which is called “Nun”.

Now if you combine these two Hebrew letter “Bet” and “Nun” it is written as   בְּן, which is translated as “Ben” and means “Son”, and who is Jesus??? 

We also see Jesus shown in Genesis 1:1, above we see אֵת and in the Hebrew alphabet this is the “Aleph” or first letter, and the “Tav” or the last letter. Revelation 22:13 says, ““I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.” In Greek “Alpha” is the first letter, and “Omega” is the last; in Hebrew it’s the “Aleph” and “Tav”

So we see the divine connection from the Genesis verse above and what John 1:1 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

And אֵת is used 22x (which is how many letters are in the Hebrew alphabet) in the KJV translation:
