A question for Revelation777. I went to see what Judaism had to say about the Trinity. The following article is about the Hebrew language and how it's used in the Torah.
Why is God’s Name “Elohim” Plural?
So, according to your beliefs God created Adam and Eve and selected Abraham and his descendants to be his chosen people, yet, for most of human history he never bothered to establish the fact that he's a trinity. Why did he wait for 300 years after Christianity started before telling anyone?

Quote:Bear in mind, there is no mystery as to the origins of the Trinity, nor is there any secret for how this aberrant doctrine emerged. The doctrine of the Trinity was forged out of the crucible of the Catholic Church long after the Christian century. It is, therefore, no wonder that this pagan doctrine was unknown to authors of the New Testament (click here to see list). Church history reveals that it was not until three hundred years after the birth of Christianity that the doctrine of the Bianity (325 C.E.) and Trinity (381 C.E.) received formal approval in the Christian community. These well documented events occurred under circumstances rife with contention, political agitation, and radical dissension in the early Church.
In essence, the Jewish people never believed in a Trinity, and the Church adopted it under enormous political pressure from the most pagan segments of the young Catholic Church. Understandably, missionaries undertake a formidable task when they seek to prove this fourth century doctrine from a radically monotheistic Torah which is timeless.
