Introduction

 

The purpose of Jesus in Genesis is simply to help Bible students see Jesus Christ in Genesis. Genesis is the Book of Beginnings and as such is especially useful for the study of Christ.

The Bible is its own best commentary, and for that reason we thought it useful to put  the New Testament references in line with Genesis text.

In the New Testament, GOD the Holy Spirit, illuminates Christ in Genesis as Creator-Redeemer: from the Creation, the fall, the Flood, Abraham and the patriarchs, even the genealogies.

To  find Jesus in Genesis? Look for the sign AΩ.

 

The Alpha-Omega sign is inserted every time the word  GOD appears in this text, because GOD is from the plural name of GOD,

 El-ohim which is proven to be The Trinity throughout

 the Bible.

 

For emphasis, I repeat, every time you read the word God in the Old Testament you should think of the Triune God. Certainly God the Father is ONE with the Holy Spirit and Son from everlasting to everlasting.

 

For a short thirty-three years while Jesus was incarnate on earth, He made himself a little lower than the angels, and  was 100% God and 100%  man.

 

The resurrection was the absolute proof He was God.

 

Romans 1. 4.  And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

 

Psalm 16. 8.  I have set the Lord (JHWH*) always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

 9.  Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. 10.  For you will not leave my soul in Hell; neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption.

 

Hebrews 1.8.  But unto the Son he saith, Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of your kingdom

 

AΩ The Trinity

 

 1 John 5. 7.  For there are Three that bear record in Heaven, Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these Three are ONE[1].

 

The Name, LORD (JHWH*)-

 

JHWH* is translated by the KJV, Lord (JHWH*). Some say JHWH*, or Jehovah, but no one knows the Name. In Heaven His NAME will be ONE .

Is Jesus Jehovah God- also called JHWH*?

 

Around 350 BC Hebrew scribes stopped writing the Name we call Jehovah or JHWH* because of the Commandment

"Thou shalt not take the Name of the LORD (JHWH*) thy GOD in vain."

 

So, they would not write the Name that was JHWH*, no vowels.

Instead they wrote, Adonai, the Hebrew Name for LORD (JHWH*).

 

The LXX version carried the Name over into their version with the Koine Greek Name for Lord , Kurios.

The Name of Jesus Christ in Koine Greek is Kurios Insous Xristou, the LORD  Jesus Christ.

 

Jesus is Lord  of Lords, and King of Kings.

 

JHWH* is Jesus Christ, the risen Son of God!

 

When first-century believers met Jesus they universally exclaimed, "My LORD , and my GOD."

If Jesus were not GOD it would have been idolatry to worship Him.

God the Father said even angels worship Jesus. The sinful woman fell at His feet washing His feet with tears and their hair. Jesus did not forbid her worship. God the Father encouraged worship of His Son in the Book of Hebrews.

Would God break His own commandments? Holy God?
