As a further and impeccable proof that Jesus is Jehovah, we place side by side the two scriptural portions below:
“Thus saith the LORD [Jehovah] the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the LORD [Jehovah] of hosts; I am the first, and I am the

last; and besides Me there is no God” (Isa. 44:6).
“Hearken unto Me, O Jacob and Israel, My called; I am He; I am the first, I also am the last” (Isa. 48:12).
and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last....I Jesus have sent Mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches” (Rev. 22:12-13,16).
Herewith we append a comment from another:
“Who it is that announces that He is coming quickly is now declared, and declared as its solemn affirmation and certainty. He is the One who was before anything had its existence, who will be after all created things in this scene shall have passed away, and who exists through all time and eternity, the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end of all existence, the eternally self-existent One who comprehends all being in Himself, for it is in Him that all live and move and have their being. The last two titles are found in Isaiah: ‘Thus saith the LORD [Jehovah] the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the LORD [Jehovah] of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and besides Me there is no God’ (Isa. 44:66Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. (Isaiah 44:6)). No terms, therefore, could more distinctly convey the truth of the Person of our blessed Lord or more clearly assert His true and proper deity. And the significance of this, coming immediately after the promise of His coming, will, when their eyes have been opened, be at once understood by the tried and persecuted remnant of the last days. They will learn from it that the Messiah, for whose advent they long, is Jehovah Elohim, their Lord and their God.”
Let us then bow to this precious truth:
Jesus is Jehovah.
