Bible Note: Greetings Jonp, It’s hard for me to grasp and angelic court from the words Us and Our as you suggest in, Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." Wouldn’t it appear strange that one of the members of the God head would be conversing with anyone besides the other two members of the trinity about something that God was going to create? I don’t understand or see how an angel could assist God in a creating situation of any kind, be it man or whatever? I’m open to anything that might be in that verse but I must admit I can’t see it. Wouldn’t the word 'elohiym even as you mentioned, being a plural word in the Hebrew, lean toward the three personalities of the trinity and thus one of the members speaking to the other two in a way that we as humans could grasp? I realize that all three of the personalities of God knew exactly what they were going to do and God didn't have to say it but I think it was penned that way for our benefit. CDBJ |
