W Dean East window Jesus Christ holding the Bible showing the Greek letters Alpha and Omega

W Dean E window. Jesus Christ holds the Bible showing alpha and omega. Alpha and omega are the first and last letters of the alphabet in Greek, the language the New Testament was written in. They symbolize the infinity of God. ‘I am the Α and Ω, says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come’ (Revelation 1:8), ‘the first and last, the beginning and the end’ (Revelation 22:13.)
