2 Questions -- הָאֱלֹהִים
Posted: Fri Oct 08, 2021 10:58 am
Hello:
1. I was wondering if there is a list that shows all the occurances of הָאֱלֹהִים in Scripture? I found a website with a list, but I do not know if it is all of them or not.
2. I was listening to a podcast the other day that said that הָאֱלֹהִים in Exodus 21:6 and Psalm 82:1 has to be translated as "the gods." What confuses me is that I have seen הָאֱלֹהִים in other spots that would not make sense in translating it as "the gods." Is there a rule where the definite article is attached to the Hebrew word for "God"?
