Bible Question:
Scripture ... 1 Sam 16:11ff, Psa 89:27, Pro 8:30, Col 1:15-18,Rev 3:14 ... In Col 1:15, the Greek word is "prototokos" meaning the pre-eminent one. Christ is not the firstborn over creation, not of creation ... read the context. See what was said of David (Psa 89:27), but was he born first (1 Sam 16:11ff)? Christ is not the first one to be born on earth (Old Testament people preceded him) but Christ is the firstborn of the resurrection and as the heir of all In Rev 3:14, the Greek word is "arche" meaning head, or ruler, as well as beginning. Jesus is the architect of all creation. More to come, Searcher |
