Meanings of “God” in some scriptures

[robvalue]

I think it's a meaningless word that theists mutate to mean whatever they want in different circumstances.

Here, I think you're giving the scriptures too much credit. The writers were just talking about this superhuman who supposedly made everything and then interfered with people for a while.

Thank you. That’s what I was hoping for, for people to just say whatever they think about my idea of what “God” means in Christian scriptures.

You're welcome

It is of course impossible to determine exactly what the intended meaning was behind various parts of the bible. It's a huge mixture of potential allegory, previous mythology, attempted "scientific" explanations of the time, health and safety, personal agenda, sanitizing history, and more. We don't know much about many of the authors, or often who they were at all.

I think it's too easy to grant too much credit, and to assume some sort of extreme widsom, retrofitting what we know onto the texts. It's such a vague and contradictory mess in its entirety that you can make it appear to support virtually any viewpoint (moral or theological) if you join together certain parts in the right way.
