Epi:This is an opinion...which is very biased. The bible speaks of BOTH Father and Son creating the universe as ELOHIM...
Let US create man in OUR image.
But you can't see the plural.
Where in scripture does it say that both God Almighty and his Son created the universe, and then they are also called, Elohim? This is pure speculation not founded on any sound doctrine or scripture.
Elohim occurs well over a couple of thousand times in the Tanakh. It is dissected as a plural masculine noun and used and ‘behaves’ many times in Hebrew as singular for God Almighty. In other places it means ‘gods.’
Elohim defined in the plural is a type of regal or a royal we as God addresses himself along with himself being in all other members of his realm - as God of Israel is all encompassing and powerful.
Only when theorists and Trinitarians perform creative meddling do we get a strange and foreign understanding of the Hebrew word as meaning both God and Jesus ONLY, for no scriptural reason at all.
Yes I see a plural, indeed and it never means the Father and his Son. That would be a strange way to define a Hebrew term used thousands of years before Christ.
Bless you,
