singular or PLURAL noun for 'god
Yes SINGULAR or plural, depending on the grammar. It's like the word "eyeglasses". It can be singular or plural: "Gdemetz probably needs eyeglasses, because he has trouble comprehending, and it might be because his vision is blurry." Then when he goes to the eyeglasses store, he might be asked, "Which of these eyeglasses to you want to buy so that you can better comprehend what you are reading?" Same word but two different meanings because it can be both plural or singular depending on the sentence structure. In Hebrew, when referring to the Hebrew God, Elohim is always SINGULAR, just like when you are referring to one pair of eyeglasses, it is always singular.
