The document discusses Genesis 1:1 from the Bible in Hebrew and English, noting there are seven words with the center word not translated. It draws connections between this verse and Revelation 1:8, discussing whether Jesus would have referred to himself as the "Aleph Tav", using the first and last letters of the Hebrew alphabet. The document then examines John 1:1-5 and parallels with Genesis 1:1, discussing symbolic meanings regarding light and life in relation to the menorah from the tabernacle.

1. בְּרֵאשִׁית בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ This is the first sentence in the Bible Genesis 1:1 Beresheet bara Elohiym et ha-shamiym v’et ha-arets In English we know it as: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth

2. בְּרֵאשִׁית בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ Note that there are seven words in this scripture. The word in the center, which is not translated because it is a grammatical marker, is the אֵת or aleph tav. אֵת is the first and last letters in the Hebrew alphabet.

3. Revelation 1:8 says: I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, says the Lord, the One who is, and who was, and who is coming, the Almighty. Is this the way Yeshua (Jesus) would have said it? or…

4. Aleph Tav … because he was a Hebrew man talking to John a Hebrew himself, would he have rather said “I am the Aleph Tav”? Using the first and last Hebrew letters? Read John 1:1-5

5. John 1 Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Joh 1:2 He was in the beginning with God. Joh 1:3 All things came into being through Him, and without Him not even one thing came into being that has come into being. Joh 1:4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men; Joh 1:5 and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overtake it.

6. Note that in John chapter 1 it says: In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God He was in the beginning with God All things came into being through Him In Him was life, and the life was the light of men; the light shines in the darkness

7. The Hebrews In the Mishkan or the tabernacle the center burner of the lampstand (menorah) was to burn continuously. This is a picture of the life and light of men that shines in the darkness. In the next slide note Gen.1:1 again, then note the location of the center burner on the menorah in relation to the Aleph Tav. Note the position of the Aleph Tav to Elohiym! Then go back and read John 1:1-5

8. בְּרֵאשִׁית בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ
