G1: Α
A · “Alpha”
Definition
the first letter of the alphabet; figuratively, only (from its use as a numeral) the first:
KJV translates it as: --Alpha
Word origin: of Hebrew origin;
Extended definition
alpha, the first letter of the Greek alphabet. As a numeral, ά = 1, α = 1000. As a prefix, it appears to have at least two and perhaps three distinct senses:
1. ἀ- (before a vowel, ἀν-) negative, as in ἄ-γνωστος, ἄ-δικος.
2. ἀ-, ἁ- copulative, indicating community and fellowship, as in ἁ-πλοῦς, ἀ-κολουθέω, ἀ-δελφός.
3. An intensive force (LS, s. α), as in ἀ-τενίζω is sometimes assumed (but see Boisacq, see word).
