Q: What does “Elohim” mean?
A: According to the Hebrew/Aramaic Dictionary, Elohim is the plural word for El or Eloah, meaning Gods. El and Eloah are the singular terms—masculine and feminine, respectively—for God. The word appears in the Bible over 2,500 times, indicating that God is not just one but more than one.
“In the beginning God [Elohim] created the heavens and the earth.”
Genesis 1:1

Genesis 1:26–27
“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?’”
Isaiah 6:8
In the current age, God the Father and God the Mother appear as the Spirit and the Bride, inviting all people to receive the free gift of the water of life.
“The Spirit and the bride say, ‘Come!’ And let the one who hears say, ‘Come!’ Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.’”
Revelation 22:17
