Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."
the ECHAD of God is already identified. for this term "Beginning" is the Hebrew word, H7225 רֵאשִׁית re'shiyth (ray-sheeth') n-f.
1. the first, in place, time, order or rank.
2. (specifically) a firstfruit.
[from the same as H7218]
KJV: beginning, chief(-est), first(-fruits, part, time), principal thing.
Root(s): H7218
God as the ECHAD or the Plurality of himself is spelled out in the first verse here in Genesis, God's plurality is in Ordinal Designation of FIRST and LAST in PLACE, TIME, ORDER, OR RANK. Ordinal Designation shows "POSITION", position where? in PLACE, TIME, ORDER, OR RANK just as the term "Beginning" states.
so, here in the beginning of CREATION, God in his plurality is designated as "FIRST" in the ECHAD, and he is also titled "Father as the root of this word suggest.
H7218 רֹאשׁ ro'sh (roshe) n-m.
the head (as most easily shaken), whether literal or figurative (in many applications, of place, time, rank, itc.).
[from an unused root apparently meaning to shake]
KJV: band, beginning, captain, chapiter, chief(-est place, man, things), company, end, X every (man), excellent, first, forefront, (be-)head, height, (on) high(-est part, (priest)), X lead, X poor, principal, ruler, sum, top.
as head/title Father, he is CREATOR, and MAKER of ALL THINGS.
Now Deuteronomy 6:4 confirms this headship, title Father, and ORDER in POSITION as First, the Ordinal First. "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:"
Many miss the understanding here. not ONE God but God who is ONE "LORD"...... (smile). for this term ONE identifies the LORD as the Ordinal First because he CREATED and MADE ALL THINGS.
ONE: H259 אֶחָד 'echad (ech-awd') adj.
1. (properly) united, i.e. one.
2. (as an ordinal) first.
[a numeral from H258]
KJV: a, alike, alone, altogether, and, any(-thing), apiece, a certain, (dai-)ly, each (one), + eleven, every, few, first, + highway, a man, once, one, only, other, some, together.
Root(s): H258
Definition #2. the title LORD shows the Ordinal Position of "FIRST"/Father. with this blueprint one can spiritually lay out or complete the foundation that the Ordinal Position of LAST is the Son. (And the Son is the builder of his OWN HLOUSE, which is to come). this is the same one person in the dispensation of PLACE, TIME, ORDER, OR RANK. and this foundation is God who is ONE person, in the ECHAD of First & Last in PLACE, TIME, ORDER, OR RANK. supportive Scriptures,
A. Isaiah 41:4 "Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he."
B. Isaiah 44:6 "Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God."
C. Isaiah 48:12 "Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last."
this ECHAD is made possible in the SHARING of God himself in PLACE, TIME, ORDER, OR RANK. Now that the Foundation is Laid, one can go to work on building the house.
