The Bible was written in Hebrew, ancient Greek, and Arabic. The names will include the original language with a short poem on each. Jesus bought us back out of sin with His precious blood, and we should desire to get to know Him better.
“And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them, in all the
scriptures the things concerning himself” (Luke 24:27 NASV).
I will begin here because “God” is used over 2,550 times in the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible).
The Hebrew word for God is Elohim. EL means “supreme one" or “mighty one.” The “im” makes it plural, referring to the Trinity. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. One God – three Persons. If someone says he can explain the Trinity to you, it's time to put your hat on and go home. We cannot comprehend it but we can believe what God's word says.
“And God said, Let us make man in our image....” Genesis 1:26
“Hear, oh Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord.” Deut. 6:4
Elohim is one of seven names used for YHWH.
