Usages

Genesis 1:1

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Breakdown

God in the Hebrew (Ahlahayam) is plural - Ahla means power, -yam makes it plural, therefore 'powers', i.e. In the beginning the powers.... "God" here represents Yahawashi (which is the real name of "Jesus" in the Paleo-Hebrew) and the angels. (John 1:1, Hebrews 1:2, Colossians 1:16). Further proof that God is plural is Genesis 1:26, Let us make man in our image.
