'First' in the Bible

The evil-doers are strange from the first; from the hour of their birth they go out of the true way, saying false words.

The humble have seen it and are glad;You who seek God [requiring Him as your greatest need], let your heart revive and live.

He struck all the firstborn in Egypt,the first progeny of the tents of Ham.

And I will make him the first of my sons, most high over the kings of the earth.

He struck all the firstborn in their land,all their first progeny.

The [reverent] fear of the Lord is the beginning (the prerequisite, the absolute essential, the alphabet) of wisdom;A good understanding and a teachable heart are possessed by all those who do the will of the Lord;His praise endures forever.

Your word is true from the first; and your upright decision is unchanging for ever.

Behold, we heard of it at Ephrathah;We found it in the field of Jaar.

It is like the precious oil [of consecration] poured on the head,Coming down on the beard,Even the beard of Aaron,Coming down upon the edge of his [priestly] robes [consecrating the whole body].
