    Names of God : God , El might or power , Eloah mighty one , Elohim mighty ones ( Angels ? ) For Yahweh is a great El , and a great King above all Elohim ( Psalm 95-3 ) Tzur ,rock or strength .

    LORD GOD or Jehovah , Yahweh , He Who Will Be ( manifested ) .

    LORD or Jah , Yah , an abbreviated form of Yahweh Adon , Lord or Ruler .

    Lord , Adonai , Lords or rulers .

    Almighty God , El Shaddai , the might of the powerful ones .

    Most High God , El Elyon , supreme might .

    LORD God , Yahweh Elohim , He who will be might ones .

    Lord GOD , Adonai Yahweh , He who will be rulers .

    LORD of hosts , Yahweh Tz ' vaoth , He who will be armies .

    The beauty of the Hebrew originals is not found in the Greek , the above applies only to the Old Testament .

    Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh , I Will Be Who I Will Be , Exodus 3-14 , expresses the purpose of Deity to manifest Himself in individuals of His Own choosing , who will then constitute the Elohim ( mighty ones , approved seed , Galatians 3-29 ) of Abraham .

    ' Who ' is the multitude of the redeemed in whom Yahweh will ultimately be revealed . It refers to a plurality of glorified ones who , will be the manifestation of the Eternal Spirit . Hope that's helpful and not confusing .

    Another re-post!

    Deuteronomy 6:4

    Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:

    In Hebrew its, "Hear, O Israel: yehovah our (Elohim) is one yehovah:

    The use of the word "one" in this verse is commonly interpreted to mean that there is only "one" God.

    However, from a Hebraic perspective, the Hebrew word (ehhad, Strong's #259) can mean a "unit" within a unity. This verse is stating that YHWH is in unity with himself.

    A good example of this is the pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. A cloud and fire are opposites-one provides coolness and shade and the other heat and light. Yet, they work together to preserve the people during the day and the night.

    Deuteronomy 6:4 connects Yehovah and Elohim.

    Plurality existing in singularly. Just as LORD of hosts.

    Yehovah is a covenant name.

    Elohim is a Plural name.

    Did you know in Genesis during the creation the name "Yehovah Elohim" is used all the way through the creation until you come to perhaps ch 4.

    God bless.
