The Bible generally emphasizes making vows to God. Here are some relevant verses:
- Deuteronomy *:*: "When you make a vow to the Lord your God, you shall not delay to pay it."
- Numbers *:*: "If a man makes a vow to the Lord or swears an oath to bind himself by some agreement, he shall not break his word."
Is there anything else you need help with?
- Numbers *:*: "If a man makes a vow to the Lord or swears an oath to bind himself by some agreement, he shall not break his word." Define "'Lord'" is it singular "Eloi Lord" of singular "one" or is it plural "Elohim Lord" of plural one as multiple "one" and GOD is the acronym for General Outer Diameter and it's visual might our "horizon" as no two people see the same horizon.
The term "Lord" in Numbers *:* is usually translated from the Hebrew word "YHWH" (Yahweh), which is a singular term referring specifically to the God of Israel. In Hebrew, "Elohim" is a plural noun but often used with singular verbs and adjectives when referring to the God of Israel, indicating a singular divine entity with a plural form.
Is there a specific legal question or issue you need help with?
Is Eloi or Elohim used in the first fourteen uses of the world "Lord" in Genesis? Clarify contradiction; please.
It seems like your question is more theological than legal. However, I can provide some information based on biblical text:
- The term "Elohim" is used in the early chapters of Genesis.
- "Elohim" is a plural noun but often used singularly to refer to the God of Israel.
- "YHWH" or "Yahweh" is used later and is a singular term for God.
