The Old Testament that was written in Hebrew records God as ''[[Elohim]] (אֱלֹהִים)'' about 2,500 times. In Genesis, God who created the heavens and the earth and humankind referred to as ''Elohim''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://biblehub.com/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm|title=Genesis 1:1|publisher=Bible Hub|quote=בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ}}</ref> In Hebrew, the singular term meaning ''God'' is ''[[Eloah]] (אֱלוֹהַּ)''. When the suffix ''-im (ים)'' is added to ''Eloah'', it becomes the plural term ''Elohim'', which means ''Gods''. This means that God is not one, but more than one.
