Aleph and Tav part 2

Genesis 1:1 says

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

According to Proverbs 8, Wisdom should be there.

While He had not yet made the earth and the fields, Nor the first dust of the world. “When He established the heavens, I was there, When He inscribed a circle on the face of the deep, (Proverbs 8:26-27)

And Paul writes that Jesus became to us wisdom from God. (1 Corinthians 1:30)

But we don’t see that in our Bible. Jesus directs us when He says “The stone which the builders rejected, this became the chief cornerstone; This came about from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes’ (Matthew 21:42)

The Hebrew Bible was translated from Hebrew to Greek over a hundred years before Jesus’ ministry. During the translating, the “builders” decided that a two-letter word combination was unnecessary to translate. This combination was the first and the last letter of the Hebrew lettering system and the first time it appears is in Genesis 1:1
