Yahweh Elohim Podcast between Belinda Phillips and Amy Hubbard starts us on a Biblical Mind Shift.   Who can carve out and divide the darkness from the light?  What spirit can see the chaos and create peace and living water?

  Yahweh Elohim. 

According to www.biblestudytool.com, The name Yahweh (yah-WEH) occurs more than 6,800 times in the Old Testament. It appears in every book but Esther, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Songs. As the sacred, personal name of Israel’s God, it was eventually spoken aloud only by priests worshiping in the Jerusalem temple. 

 Understanding the way the ancient writers saw Yahweh vs other spirits of the Biblical narrative has profoundly changed how the Bible and Coffee Podcast see the scriptures.    

What is life-changing is the remarkable way in which the people of ancient times saw Yahweh and understood his power.

Understanding Elohim vs Yahweh Elohim under the microscope of the Hebrew Bible can give us a 3-dimensional look at the way we should view Yahweh.  Amy and Belinda give in to the notion that maybe we should take a minute to understand the Hebrew words as they were written.  

Amy and Belinda talk about their struggle with the Biblical Mindshift, which has made reading the Bible so much more powerful for both of them.  Therefore, using another part of our senses to hear Yahweh’s words.   Understanding that the translation of Elohim as GOD is not always a correct interpretation. 

Who carves out light in the middle of the chaos?   Genesis 1:1 speaks of the power of the spiritual being that is capable of dividing darkness from light.  What did the water look like to the ancient Hebrews?   What we see as powerful water is tamed by our 21st-century minds.  The ancient Hebrews saw it as chaos.   Belinda actually still confirms it as chaos as well, as you will hear in this podcast.   Listen now to the Biblical Mindshift series Yahweh Elohim Podcast.
