Jesus says, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end" (Rev. 22:13). Alpha and Omega are the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet. If you say something is the ABC's you're saying it's the basics. But if you say that is the A to Z, you're saying that's everything. It's complete. The same was true in Jesus' day. Thus, he is saying, "I'm everything.' And, here we see in this focus of the gospel, Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega and everything in between.
