| {{bl| The Son of God בר ''bar'' and the increase רב ''rab'' }}

| The revelation to man ב of the revelation ר is the 'son' ''bar'' בר, but more specifically, the Son of God. He is the unbegotten only Son of God, which speaks of his eternal nature.

| Traversing the gate in the opposite direction produces some sense of the reversal of meaning. ''Rab'' רב is the revelation ר of the house ב. Here the emphasis is on the ''rosh'' revelation which produces an increase. ''rab'' רב means 'increase' indicated by the house/family created by the revelation.
| |
| <ref group="v">rab רב- increase, ''f.'' revelation ר of the house ב.</ref>

| It may seem confusing that we used the ''bet'' ב as 'revelation to man' sometimes, and as 'house' other times. They are part of the same metaphor. In this case, the ''bar'' בר could be expressed as the 'house of revelation' meaning the 'family of revelation'. The Son is the head of his household.

| |
| His family are the 'sons of God' who also reveal the invisible God by teaching of Christ. It's simply a matter of which makes the better dynamic equivalent in the current context.

| The church is the ultimate revelation of the Word of God, or revelation of God, since it is in their obedience of faith that we find the essential nature of the Kingdom of Heaven.
