ELOHIM

Elohim in the Hebrew Bible refers to deities, and is one of the many names or titles for God in the Hebrew Bible.

The word is identical to the plural of el, meaning gods or magistrates, and is used for the pantheon of Canaanite gods, the children of El, and conventionally vocalized as "Elohim". The notion of divinity underwent radical changes in the early period of Israelite identity and development of Ancient Hebrew religion. The ambiguity of the term elohim is the result of such changes, cast in terms of "vertical translatability", i.e. the re-interpretation of the gods from 7th century BC, Judah to the emergence of monotheist Rabbinical Judaism in the 2 AD.

FAQ on Elohim (2)

1.How did the prophets Moses, Jesus, Abraham etc. call out to God?

Historical and linguistic evidence shows that these prophets spoke ancient Semitic languages, meaning they addressed God using linguistic cognates tightly linked to the Arabic word Allah. Abraham and Moses historically used the Hebrew names El or Elohim, while Jesus addressed God in Aramaic using Elah or Alaha, all of which share identical ancient roots across the Semitic language family tree.

2.How did the 1st century Jews view the Holy Spirit?

The Holy Spirit was understood as God's active, divine power, rather than a distinct, third person of a Trinity.

First century Jews believed the Holy Spirit was another name for God, similar to Yahweh, Elohim or El Shaddai - not a separate Person in the Trinity!

There is no record of Jesus ever trying to correct the Jews and prove the Holy Spirit was a third Person in the Trinity.
