Perhaps luckily, the Christian doesn't have to wrestle over the 'private language possibility vs. impossibility' given that the Biblical God is three distinct person's in one God. The eternal being has peers: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

El, El's wife, and El's son Ba'al = Elohim.

Quote:The word is identical to the usual plural of el meaning gods or magistrates, and is cognate to the 'l-h-m found in Ugaritic, where it is used for the pantheon of Canaanite gods, the children of El and conventionally vocalized as "Elohim".
