Genesis 1:1 - Does the Hebrew Word "Elohim" Imply Multiple Persons In The Godhead?

Описание: In this video we will learn why many scholars and theologians (including trinitarians) have rejected the idea that the Hebrew word "Elohim" supports the doctrine of the trinity or the belief that God is made up of multiple Persons. Upon deeper study of the Hebrew grammar associated with the One True God being called Elohim (God), many have come to understand that the plural form is an amplified noun that is referring to a plural of majesty, honor, and excellency. It actually conveys the fact that God is the greatest of all gods (He is the Elohim of elohim as in Deuteronomy 10:17). Whenever Elohim refers to the One True God, it is accompanied by singular verbs. When elohim refers to more than one false god, it is accompanied by plural verbs. If Elohim was used for the purpose of indicating that the true God consists of multiple Persons, then plural verbs would have to be used when referring to God. In this video we will look at examples of how varied the use of the word "elohim" is throughout the Old Testament and we will compare it to how it is translated into the Greek New Testament when referring to God (Elohim) and how it is translated into the singular word "Theos." This sheds light on the singular understanding of the Hebrew word "Elohim" when referring to the One True God. Please join me as we discuss this important subject.
