(If Hebrew letters are unfamiliar, just look at the shapes and see them in the words and in the break-outs of the words. It is the consistent use of the meaning of the alphabet in notarikon that shows it is a true meaning. It is impossible for any man to have imposed these meanings after the scripture was written. In the words, the letters are written right to left)

"In the beginning God..." In the first full sentence of revelation God tells one of his names "Elohim". The word is not fully understood by theologians and so there is confusion.

Those who know enough Hebrew to be dangerous say that Elohim is a plural noun for eloah meaning 'gods'. This is true but a secondary meaning which cannot be applied to all instances. You can see how this causes problems, since God calls men elohim. How do we make sense of this?

Using the ancient Hebrew practice of notarikon, 'Elohim' אלהים means God 'El' אל separated from creation י (which has been finished by the son ם) by ignorance ה.

Man is separated from God because they don't know him. When he calls men 'elohim' he is using the primary meaning. It applies to God, since men are separated from him, and it applies to men because God is separated from them. This is the primary meaning of 'Elohim'.

When judges are called 'Elohim' it is not because they judge like God. It is because they don't judge like God. They cannot judge rightly because they don't know him.

Using the same notarikon, eloah אלוה means 'God אל discerned by, or made clear by ו ignorance ה. The ignorance of men, bickering over this or that, drives people crazy to the point that they cry out "It is not supposed to be this way!" By doing so, they are declaring that there is a God whose way it is supposed to be.

When a man or idol is called 'eloah', it says that such a declaration that the man or idol is a God is totally foolish and made plain by the ignorance of the claim. It is a god for the foolish.
