Rev 3-14 And write this to the messenger
of the
congregation in Laodicea, ‘This is what the Amen
says (the faithful and true witness, the earliest
creation of God): http://www.2001translation.com/Revelation.htm
The ancient Hebrews (as well as
the early Christians) would have been shocked by the types of words we use
today, especially when it comes to words that imply infinity. They viewed
everything (and rightly so) as having a beginning and an end. For that reason,
you don’t find many words in their writings that imply no beginning or end,
although such words were available in Greek.
The word used at Revelation 3:14
and translated as ‘the earliest creation’ here is arche (ar kay). If you
take a look at some of the words that are derived from arche in modern
English, you get an idea of the true broad range of meanings of this ancient
word, and none of theses meanings implies infinity. Examples include:
·
Arch or arc: A high rounded peak
·
·
Archbishop: The highest bishop
·
Archeology: A study of ancient things or beginnings
·
Archaic: Something that is old.
All these applications are similar
to the many ways the term is used in the Bible. So, the opening words of
Genesis and the book of John, ‘En arche,’ mean ‘In an
ancient time,’ a time that had a beginning. And at Revelation 3:14, Jesus is
referred to as ‘the earliest creation of God’ (gr. ‘he arche
tes ktiseos tou Theou’ – or – ‘the ancient of the creation of the God’)
which implies an early (not eternal) time.

Revelation
3:14-22 14 "To the
messenger F18 of the church in Laodicea,
write: R60 'The Amen, the witness who is
faithful and true, the beginning F19 of God's creation, says this: 15 'I know your works,
that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot. R61 16 Since you
are lukewarm and neither hot nor cold, I am going to spit you out of my
mouth. 17 You say, "I am rich. I have become wealthy.
I don't need anything." Yet you don't realize that you are miserable,
pitiful, poor, blind, and naked. R62 18 Therefore,
I advise you to buy from me gold purified in fire so that you may be rich,
white clothes to wear so that you may keep the shame of your nakedness from
showing, and ointment to put on your eyes so that you may see. R63 19 I
correct and discipline those whom I love, so be serious and repent! R64 20 Look! I am
standing at the door and knocking. If anyone listens to my voice and opens
the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he will eat F20 with me. R65 21 To the one
who conquers I will give a place to sit with me on my throne, just as I have
conquered and have sat down with my Father on his throne. R66 22 'Let the
person who has an ear listen to what the Spirit says
to the churches.'" R67 |
