Jesus was raised in and given the word of God without measure, from the God and Father, so when he expressed them out, he BECAME the express image of God's PERSON = WORD, The Word. Heb 1:3, by Jo, you cannot get it any clearer than that.
-----------------------
Wotsup, you have an incorrect understanding of Heb1:3. It has nothing to do with expressing or speaking words as you have claimed many times. Apparently, the archaic language of the KJV has you thinking it does.
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; - KJV
Compare it with any modern Bible that uses language more readily understood today.
3 He is the reflection of God’s glory+ and the exact representation of his very being,+ and he sustains all things by the word of his power. And after he had made a purification for our sins,+ he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. - NWT
This doesn't mean Jesus didn't speak in harmony with his Father. That Jesus is the image of God means he has the same personality or superb qualities of God. This is something all Christians should strive to acquire.
(Colossians 3:10) and clothe yourselves with the new personality, which through accurate knowledge is being made new according to the image of the One who created it, - NWT
10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: - KJV
