Revelation 1:8, "I am the Alpha Αlpha ( Α ) ( α ) and the Omega Οmega ( Ω ) ( ω )," the first and the last letters. Christ "the Beginning and the Ending" comprises all between. Genesis and Revelation meet in Him. The last presents man and God reconciled in paradise, as the first presented him innocent and in God's favor in paradise. I accomplish finally what I begin (Philippians 1:6). Always the same. Before all the church's foes, Satan, the beast, and the false prophet; and about to be after they are no more as a power (Hebrews 13:8).
From the co-author of the classic Jamieson, Fausset and Brown Commentary, Fausset's Bible Dictionary stands as one of the best single-volume Bible encyclopedias ever written for general use. The author's writing style is always clear and concise, and he tackles issues important to the average student of the Bible, not just the Biblical scholars. This makes Fausset an excellent tool for both everyday Bible study and in-depth lesson or sermon preparation.Wikipedia
