1 | Gen 1:26 | Gen 1:1 | you | 234044 | ||
In Gen 1:26 and Neh 5:18 you have two words that look the same except for cantillation marks. So they would be pronounced almost the same except for accentuation. Davidson's first parsing and the one I gave from Beal are singular plural. This parsing is easy to find in a I-Guttural verb chart. Based on context of the rest of the verse you decide this is the right parsing for Gen 1:26. Davidson's second parsing applies to Neh 5:18. Beal says this a "niph ptc ms" on page 379. | ||||||

What do Jesus say in regard to whom we should obey? Lu 4:8 And Jesus answering him said, It has been put down in writing, You shall do obeisance to the Jehovah your God, and worship HIM ONLY. Is 44:6 Thus saith Jehovah, the King of Israel, and the deliverer, Jehovah of hosts; I am the ONLY first, and I am the last; and besides me (there)is no God. So you are saying because that is used with a plural verb, "elohim" is plural when used of heathen divinities? So which is it? the Hebrew GOD, or is it used of heathen divinities? Do you consider the word "HIS" as plural? I will substitute the word MADE (STRONG'S (aw-saw' H6213) so you can see it does not change the meaning of the word "in HIS image" GOD MADE him(elohim H430). Ge 1:26 And God commanded and MADE (STRONG'S H6213) man "in HIS image", in (HIS)likeness: to rule over the fish of the sea, and the fowl of the air, and to make the beast, and all the earth, and everything all reptiles all insects upon the earth. Do you think MAKER is plural in Isa 54:5? Do you think the HOLY ONE is plural? NOTICE the word ONE. For thy Maker (aw-saw' H6213) is thine husband; the Jehovah of hosts is His name; and thy Revenger the Holy ONE of Israel; The GOD (elohim H430) of the whole earth shall He be called. Mal 3:18 Then shall ye return, and ra ha (discern) between the Tzedek (righteous) and the rasha (wicked,) between him that serveth GOD [Elohim H430] and him that serveth HIM not. Elohim is a grammatically a SINGULAR or PLURAL noun for "god" or "gods" in both modern and ancient Hebrew language. The masculine plural ending does not mean “gods” when referring to the true God of Israel, since the name is mainly used with singular verb forms and with adjectives and pronouns in the singular (e.g. see Gen. 1:26).” [1] The form of the word Elohim, with the ending -im, is plural and masculine, but the construction is usually singular, i.e. it governs a singular verb or adjective when referring to the Hebrew GOD, but reverts to its normal plural when used of heathen divinities (Psalms 96:5; 97:7). The word Elohim is the PLURAL of El (or possibly Eloah) and is the FIRST NAME OF GOD given in the Old Testament: “In the beginning, GOD (Elohim) created the heavens and the earth, (Gen. 1:1). The MASCULINE PLURAL ending does not mean “gods” when referring to the true God of Israel, since the name is mainly used with singular verb forms and with ADJECTIVES and pronouns in the singular (e.g. see Gen. 1:26).” [1] The form of the word Elohim, with the ending -im, is PLURAL and MASCULINE, but the construction is usually SINGULAR, i.e. it governs a singular verb or ADJECTIVE when referring to the Hebrew GOD, but reverts to its normal plural when used of heathen divinities (Psalms 96:5; 97:7). |

For of our GOD it is written, “All things were made by Him.” Whoever therefore believes that anything can be made, or that any creature can be changed to better or worse, or transformed into another species or likeness, EXCEPT BY God HIMSELF, who made everything and through whom all things were made, is beyond a doubt an INFIDEL.’ Charles Lea, ‘A History of the Inquisition In Spain’, volume 4, book 8, chapter 9, page 209 http://bibleapologetics.wordpress.com/christianity-and-the-witch-hunt-era-37/ |

Arguments about the trinity are not allowed by TOU. Gen 1:26 is a verse some people use for finding the trinity in the Hebrew scriptures. There are other ways to interpret that verse but it does say "let us make" otherwise Jewish translations wouldn't say it. | ||||||
