Kristen,
The Lamb “slain from the foundation of the world” is the one I was thinking of too. After all if Jesus the resurrected man can go back in time and walk with Adam, then He can go back before Adam was created and be there for the creation.

The firstborn of all creation is a reference to preeminence. The “first-born” rights were not necessarily given to the first one born. But it is a term of preeminence.
