Alpha & Omega
3 Nephi 9:18; “I am the light and the life of the world. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.”
Revelation 1:8; “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.”
If the Nephites had been in America since 600 BC how did they know to use the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet?
Greek wasn’t a language used until 323 BC at its earliest record. At that time only dignitaries and those high up in government positions were using Greek. The majority of people were using Aramaic.
Were the Nephites traveling back and forth between Israel and America so they would know this language?
If Jesus did visit the Nephites as the Book of Mormon indicates then why did He use this vocabulary with them and not something they’d be familiar with?
