Would I be correct in stating that Gen 1:3 and God saith, `Let light be; was Jesus speaking..
As well as Joh 6:63 The spirit, it is, that giveth life,—the flesh, profiteth, nothing:
The declarations which, I, have spoken unto you, are, spirit, and, are, life.
And also Rev 22:13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
If not why not?
I agree. Id go back to gen 1:1
He didnt say anything till vs 3. Did He"
very true :happy3:
Another possibility is that he is the words [dabar] spoken.

He is that too. Joh 1:1 In the beginning was
the Word, and
the Word was with God, and
the Word was God; :bigGrin:
Jesus never claimed credit for the original Genesis creation of the heavens and the earth. He was in no doubt that the universe was God's handiwork.
Mat 19:4 He answered, "Have you not read that he (God) who created them from the beginning made them male and female,
Remember Jesus has a God... "Blessed be God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Peter 1:3). Yet for us there is but one God, the Father, (1Co 8:6)
Mar 13:19 For in those days there will be such tribulation as has not been from the beginning of the creation that God (my Father) created until now, and never will be.
Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word (ῥῆμα/ rhēma) of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.
Please note that the word used here is not Logos as it is used in John 1 but rhēma .
I have probably crossed over the line with this post so will offer no furthur discussion. As topics on the Trinity, or stuff like that is off limits. So just look at this post as food for thought. :thumbsup:

Remember the 4th word. In the beginning AlephTav (=Alpha Omega)
Also to consider:
- The 1st verse is 7 words. Like 7 lights of the Menorah. The center is the 4th word/light. Jesus.
- Draw a square around earth. Add all four sides. 31 680 miles. Lord Jesus Christ = 3168
- Bit more complicated but the first verse means light. Jesus is the light of the world.
All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.
How does this verse not include the heavens and earth?
Also whats the difference between logos and rhema? ( from a conceptual standpoint)
Thanks,
Jeremy

Spirit plus word
combined...earth was formless and empty darkness over surface of deep and the spirit[rheuma/breath] of God was hovering above the waters
then the 'word' was spoken..LET THERE BE LIGHT
we hear letter of word dead with out spirit[no life in it] but spirit without word is formless,empty and darkness on the face of the deep...
now Adam received 'breath' and the 'word' let us make man..' formed him..and he was alive..then the commandment come[word] Do not eat of tokogae
and he died.....Man does not live by bread alone,but by every word that comes from the mouth of Father
I think of 'breath" as femine..and 'word' as masculine...breath as life,word as light of life/understanding
the ability of 'word' to give understanding/definition and communion to life..to form in us the new man in Christ[spirit]
the 'WORD OF GOD COME IN FLESH WAS SPIRIT AND WORD COMBINED" It alone can reveal/define the Father,and the Father alone[word and spirit]
can reveal the son
