And he's a father, OK? And he's a grandfather. Wow. So he has different names, but it's the same person. He is also a nephew. He's probably an uncle, a grandson. You know, start think there's various names or we would say words that describe the same person. And it's much the same with God in the Hebrew. Language. There's Jehovah Jirah God will provide.

I've heard that said I'm not going to elaborate on that. My primary point here is God for us means one person, generally speaking, but the name Elohim opens the door of our understanding. There was more than one person at that. The event we call creation.
