Elohim

Post by Vain »

Found this:

God


(A.S. and Dutch God; Dan. Gud; Ger. Gott), the name of the Divine Being. It is the rendering

(1) of the Hebrew _'El_, from a word meaning to be strong;
(2) of _'Eloah_, plural _'Elohim_. The singular form, _Eloah_, is used only in poetry. The plural form is more commonly used in all parts of the Bible, The Hebrew word Jehovah (q.v.), the only other word generally employed to denote the Supreme Being, is uniformly rendered in the Authorized Version by "LORD," printed in small capitals.

Yes. We Elohim are rather divine and somewhat God-like. :D

O Infelice,
Who art in Elemesnedene,
Hallowed be thy Wurd.

Thy Kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
In the Land, as it is in the clachan...

:lol:
Stone and Sea are deep in life,
two unalterable symbols of the world;
permanence at rest, and permanence in motion;
participants in the Power that remains.
