...<<a) the highest ranking angel? (as I have learned it)>>

How fascinating language is, especially in the context of the Bible.
The Hebrew word for "beginning" as in "in the beginning" from my
understanding has a similar overlap of meaning: top/beginning.
If I am not mistaken, Hebrew/Chaldee is considered to be great-grandparent
to Greek somehow (via Babel, though) so there may be some echo...
Also, there is a Biblical/Jewish relationship between that which comes first
and that which ranks higher:
