    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    It means he denied being agathos which means perfect. Why do you call me perfect,?there is none perfect except one, a god.

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    It actually before Abraham becomes [i.e overjoyed], I am [he or it here, the light of the world]. He was supposedly defaming God for claiming to be his predicted son.

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    It was because he was talking about Abraham as though he weren't dead, and that Abraham respected him. They were stoning him for being a heretic about the afterlife, because they respected the Sadducees too much.

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    Done. It assumes Elohim is a generic word for a god, when El was the original. Most of the post looks irrelevant so as not to prove your point. More yet, the father cannot be extracted from the Genesis passage.

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    It gives us a word for supernatural entity. It is a faulty one at that. El is the Aramaic dialect form.

    Is the claim of only one God false? - How many gods are there?

    I personally think it lame when Jews refer to idols as God or the Christian is a different God rather than say we misunderstand HIM. Idols are not Gods, and the Samaritans thought they could make models of the life-giving God. [g]ods are supernatural entities, not ideas. The belief that idols...

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    I suggest you look at the magical Megillah 9a.12, and 9a.14 [on Sefaria]. The word for God in Hebrew was originally El not Elohim.

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    I just love how I is part of your God's name. I AM is a lame and selfish name which didn't happen. Exodus LXX 3:14 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ θεὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ὤν καὶ εἶπεν οὕτως ἐρεῖς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ ὁ ὢν ἀπέσταλκέν με πρὸς ὑμᾶς
