In general across the Bible the Elohim is translated to God in the Bible.
Should Elohim (אֱלֹהִים) actually translate to “godly beings”, instead of "God" in the Bible?
If it should be translated to “godly beings”, why we've in most of the translations"God"?
If question is too broad to answer, ...
I think the other question Why is Elohim translated as God rather than gods? indicates that it's asking Bible translators why they did that mistake if it's mistake (this is my understanding). The question 'Should Elohim actually translate to “godly beings”, instead of “God”?' is more approach if we would have a chance for a new version of Bible which should translate the term in more correct/appropriate way. If you think it's duplicate, I could remove my question. — kenorb6 mins ago
@JackDouglas @PaulVargas I am beginning to question my vote as duplicate based of kenorb's last comment: "The other question states 'Why?', so the answer to the other question is because a singular noun is used with a singular verb. So not much deal in that. I think my question/answer doesn't fit there. – kenorb" So the grammatical "why" is perhaps different that "should" it be so translated.
@JackDouglas I doubt it, because I think he is trying to argue that every instance should be plural, or at least referring to a "class" of beings (though I am not certain of that).
I found commented out code from 8 year old VCS commits in which I'd attempted something similar but at the time web browser typography simply was not up to the task and I couldn't make it work. I dusted it off this week and was able to make it go finally. It's still a bit rough around the edges, but note that both English and Turkish hyphenation and justification is working!
@PaulVargas No, but close. We actually rented that building for a couple years. As of 4 years ago we're now on the 8th floor of an office building about 4 blocks from there, but Google refuses to update our location on Google maps.
With this definition and comment, you have inspired me to read the bible and trying to understand it more than any other person or text — user242296014 mins ago
