The divine speaker who is sent is the CREATOR of verses 12-13,
The divine speaker who is sent by God makes two assertions about Himself,
1. He says, "I am the First and the Last."
Jesus is the First and hte Last, Revelation 1:8, 17; 22:13
2. He says, "My hand has laid the foundation of the earth, And my right hand has stretched out the heavens.
The Father attributed the creation to the Son saying,
It appears as if the Father does not accept Pierac's conclusion that the divine speaker's being sent by God excludes Him from being God Himself for,
1. The Father explicitly calls the Son by the name "God."
2. The Son is called "God" and yet is anointed by God.
3. The Father addresses the Son as "LORD" (YHWH, in Psalm 102 which the Father is citing) and attributes the creation to the work of His Hands.
Pierac has been spanked again but he keeps on coming back for more.
Great comments again, brother!!!
