| - Elohim was a star that was located a number of parsecs away from Earth and the Sol system, in Federation space, near the border between the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. The Federation starship USS Elohim was named for this location. (TOS reference: Star Fleet Technical Manual)
- The Elohim are winged celestial beings who served as messengers and attendants of God in Heaven.
- They were multi-dimensional creatures that utilised spacecraft, but were capable of moving through walls. They appeared as shining skulls wearing shrouds and spoke in whispery voices that echoed. Additionally, their presence caused exothermic osmotic energy transference, meaning the room grew cold whenever they were about to appear. The Elohim began a "war in heaven" against the rest of their species, who pursued them. Rather than fight them directly, the Elohim set themselves up as "generals" and sought others to fight the battle for them. (AUDIO: Paradise 5) File:SpeciesStub.png
- Elohim (エロヒム) is a demon in the series.
- “The word Elohim is the plural of El (or possibly Eloah) and is the first name of God given in the Old Testament: “In the beginning, God (Elohim) created the heavens and the earth, (Genesis 1:1). “The name Elohim is unique to Hebraic thinking – it occurs only in Hebrew and in no other ancient Semitic language. The masculine plural ending does not mean “gods” when referring to the true God of Israel, since the name is mainly used with singular verb forms and with adjectives and pronouns in the singular (e.g. see Genesis 1:26).” [1]
- Elohim literally means "Gods" (yes, plural) in Hebrew. It is used by the Elohist Source of the Bible to refer to God. Predating the monotheistic variety of Judaism, the Elohist text is believed by some to have originated at around c. 850 BCE. In later adaptations its polytheistic elements were largely removed, leaving only atavistic remnants such as Genesis 3:22 and its plural form as indicators of its polytheistic significance. The name Elohim itself is only used in the early parts of the Elohist text, changing to Yahweh after the Burning Bush incident.
- "for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." -First book of Samuel, chapter 16 Elohim, the Powers, are the fourth Choir of angels. They are opposed by Habbalah, the Punishers. Elohim are natural advisors and counselors, and some Elohim perform important roles in Heavenly decision-making.
- Immanuel Logos was a follower of Sirona, goddess of wisdom. He ruled a small tribe in her name, dispensing wisdom and providing shelter for her followers. Until one day he observed her army, a phalanx of titans, marching upon a stronghold of Aeron. The armies met in a field worked by a group of subsistence farmers. When the battle ended, the armies were tattered, but the bystanders were worse, broken in body, fields destroyed, and despondent of spirit. It was a scene played out countless times, as dragons crushed struggling settlements when they clashed or holy fire rained down upon those caught in the middle. Immanuel believed in his goddess, but he could no longer stand on the sidelines, nor confine his care to his own people.
- Elohim (Hebrew: אֱלֹהִים) is a grammatically singular or plural noun for "god" or "gods" in both modern and ancient Hebrew language. When used with singular verbs and adjectives elohim is usually singular, "god" or especially, the God. When used with plural verbs and adjectives elohim is usually plural, "gods" or "powers". It is generally thought that Elohim is a formation from eloah, the latter being an expanded form of the Northwest Semitic noun il (אֵל, ʾēl). It is usually translated as "God" in the Hebrew Bible, referring with singular verbs both to the one God of Israel, and also in a few examples to other singular pagan deities. With plural verbs the word is also used as a true plural with the meaning "gods". The related nouns eloah (אלוה) and el (אֵל) are used as proper names or as
- Elohim are a race of spirits who possess god-like powers. To mortal perceptions, they appear as beautiful men and women in a remote, sealed-off region of the Earth, and spend their time in dazzling physical transformations. In their own perspective, they constitute the animating principle of the Earth, and the history of the Land is the manifestation of events in their own consciousness. As they regard their own domain as the only "real" place in the Earth, they rarely dabble in outside events. However, if they perceive a grave threat to the Earth, one of their number is "Appointed" to attempt to avert the threat - and to bear the cost of failing.
