Gods - Greek Language Issues

There are many false, pagan Gods mentioned in the Bible.

The false gods mentioned in the Bible were worshipped by the people of Canaan and the nations surrounding the Promised Land.

El Shaddai
1 of 60 All-Sufficient One, Lord God Almighty Strongs Hebrew: #H7706 El is another name that is translated as "God" and can be used in conjunction with other words to designate various aspects of God's character. This refers to God completely nourishing, satisfying, and supplying His people with all their needs as a mother would her child. Connected with the word for God, El, this denotes a God who freely gives nourishment and blessing, He is our sustainer. And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God (#H7706); walk before me, and be thou perfect. GENESIS 17:1 Total mentions: 28 verses
El Elyon
1 of 60 The Most High God Strongs Hebrew: #H5945 El is another name that is translated as "God" and can be used in conjunction with other words to designate various aspects of God's character. Elyon literally means "Most High" and is used both adjectivally and substantivally throughout the Old Testament. It expresses the extreme sovereignty and majesty of God and His highest preeminence. When the two words are combined - El Elyon - it can be translated as "the most exalted God" And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God (#5945), possessor of heaven and earth GENESIS 14:19 Total mentions: 53 verses
Adonai
1 of 60 Lord, Master Strongs Hebrew: #H136 Adonai is the verbal parallel to Yahweh and Jehovah. Adonai is plural; the singular is adon. In reference to God the plural Adonai is used. When the singular adon is used, it usually refers to a human lord. Adon is used 215 times to refer to men. Sometimes Adonai was used as a substitute for Yahweh (YHWH). Adonai can be translated literally as, "my lords' " (both plural and possessive). And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Lord, (#H136) wherefore hast thou so evil entreated this people? why is it that thou hast sent me? EXODUS 5:22 Total mentions: 448 verses
Yahweh
1 of 60 Lord, Jehovah Strongs Hebrew: #H3068 Yahweh is the promised name of God. This name of God which (by Jewish tradition) is too holy to voice, is actually spelled "YHWH" without vowels. YHWH comes from the Hebrew letters: Yud, Hay, Vav, Hay. While YHWH is first used in Genesis 2, God did not reveal Himself as YHWH until Exodus 3. These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD (#H3068) God made the earth and the heavens, GENESIS 2:4 Total mentions: 6220 verses
Jehovah Nissi
1 of 60 The Lord My Banner Strongs Hebrew: #H3068 Yahweh is the promised name of God. This name of God which (by Jewish tradition) is too holy to voice, is actually spelled "YHWH" without vowels. YHWH comes from the Hebrew letters: Yud, Hay, Vav, Hay. While YHWH is first used in Genesis 2, God did not reveal Himself as YHWH until Exodus 3. And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi: EXODUS 17:15 Total mentions: 1 verse
