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

    "Their plurality" is missing from the tetragrammaton, and the LXX. And what of elohim for other gods. Is it plural or singular?

    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.

    [Mat 19:17 KJV] 17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? [there is] none good but one, [that is], God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

    If only ye knew what αγαθος means. Jesus, he is not ideal or perfect. Why do you call him perfect?

    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

    Exploring Trinitarian Logic

    1 John 5:7 affirms 3 witnesses who are not the same. The Father is the word, and the Holy Spirit is part of it, but the son goes unmentioned til later. Parts of him witness on the earth. The passage was not as trinitarian as it once seemed.
