Subject: Gods

Bible Note: Elohim is usually translated "gods" or "God".

John 10:34 is refering to Psalm 82:6:
Ps 82:6 I said, "You are gods, And all of you are sons of the Most High.
Ps 82:7 "Nevertheless you will die like men
And fall like any one of the princes."

The word translated "rulers" in Ps 82:1 is a second occurance of Elohim:
Ps 82:1 God takes His stand in His own congregation; He judges in the midst of the rulers.

Elohim in Exodus 22:8-9,28; 1 Sam 2:25 and possibly Psalm 138:1 should be translated "the judges":

Ex 22:8 "If the thief is not caught, then the owner of the house shall appear before the judges, to determine whether he laid his hands on his neighbor's property.
Ex 22:9 "For every breach of trust, whether it is for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for clothing, or for any lost thing about which one says, 'This is it,' the case of both parties shall come before the judges; he whom the judges condemn shall pay double to his neighbor.
Ex 22:28 "You shall not curse God, nor curse a ruler of your people.

1 Sam 2:25 "If one man sins against another, God will mediate for him; but if a man sins against the LORD, who can intercede for him?" But they would not listen to the voice of their father, for the LORD desired to put them to death.

Ps 138:1 I will give You thanks with all my heart; I will sing praises to You before the gods.
