Kinda lazy... to talk about it now... lol, already typed a whole lot in the last few, couple of days... I'm so lazy now, lol. But there is much to be said about this subject... that's a fact of life. [/quote] Yep, that is what it is, it is a matter of how it is used. Just as the word for lord, it is both Majestic and relates to God the other does not, it is more about a lead over other men.

Original Message
I already have my own opinion of this. I think that it has to be plural.
"Let us make man in our image."
This, coupled with all of the ancients texts, cities, and artifacts from Sumeria, Egypt, India, and on and on.
Then there's the whole missing link. SOMETHING jump started us in bug way. We go from spear chuckers to city builders almost overnight.
And what about the crazy astronomical knowledge. They knew the solar system better than we did until the 20th century.
We had to have been helped and I think that's what the elohim are.
Any thoughts on this?
Sorry if this seemed terse... I'm using my tablet and typing on it blows.
