(with plural verb -im))). Or kjv@Isaiah:45:21-22 (there is no) Elohiym (god- plural?) zuwlah (except me); (a) tsaddiyq (just or lawful) el (God) (and a) yasha' (rescuer or saviour); (there is) ayin (nothing existing) biladey (beside or without me). This translation relies upon the strict interpretation that plural verb makes plural noun which it does in certain cases. Others suggest that the form has morphed from a more archaic use gods multiple to the Hebrew God singular over time with divine revelation (see:http://www.gci.org/god/elohim4 ). There are strong arguments on both sides though the singular is most commonly held. Where either the standard transliteration or the modern translation gets tricky is with further context like kjv@Genesis:1:26 kjv@Genesis:3:22 kjv@Genesis:11:6-7. one or the other has to be explained. Another OT question then arises, that if no man has seen nor can see God, with whom did Adam walk in the garden, who did Abram plead before, who did Jacob wrestle? filter:OT LORD+appeared+NOT+angel filter:OT LORD+appeared+NOT+glory Trinity: dict:torrey Trinity dict:torrey Unity of God dict:easton Godhead kjv@John:10:30 Trinity can be thought of as being like to water. There is no denial that water is one thing: water. Closer to the truth though is that it is H20, three fundamental molecules bound as one. H20 is not an argument against water and water is not an argument that it is not H20, they are logically complimentary. Light is undeniably light, but through a prism it is three distinct colors/wave lengths. Relativity is defined as three energy time and mass. If one undeniable thing can be comprised of three distinct inseparable elements in nature, then why not in super nature? How do we know then that this triune godhead does not consist of more than three or that there is more than one godhead? The LORD says that there is none other than one and the three can be scripturally shown to have testified of each other. Further Resources: Comment Board:Mark:12:28-34
