Does "Elohim" in any way prove the Trinity?

Not equal authority. Not even close.

1Co_11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

The New Testament books were written in Greek, and elohim is a Hebrew word.

In scripture, the head of someone else means they have higher authority. God the Son is subservient to the God the Father.

In the Godhead, it is reasonable to consider three omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, and perfect Persons as essentially equal.

It is unreasonable to do that considering what the bible says about this. There is a hierarchy to the Trinity with the Father as the ultimate authority. The Son had to do as the Father wished, even when expressing desire for something else to take place. Scripture says the Son learned obedience by the things he suffered. The Father is the Son's God and that means he obeys what his God says shall happen. The Trinity is the Father, the Son and the HS, all are God and divine but not equal in place or authority.

If the Son learned obedience, then before emptying himself He had no need to be obedient. Otherwise He would not have had to learn it.

There is no "if".

Correct. We are told that the Son learned obedience after emptying Himself at the incarnation.

No, he learned that at the cross.


Heb 5:7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
Heb 5:8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
Heb 5:9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

So, he was apparently not subservient before then, but an equal among equals.

Well first let me assure everyone that I believe in the Trinity; “One invisible creator God YHWH, who reveals himself in 3 different ways for 3 different purposes”. However I have observed that a number of people use the title “Elohim” as though it were some sort of proof of the Trinity and I just want to point out that that is a mistake. The Bible though is full of proof of the Trinity.
Below is part of my study on the title “Elohim”.

ELOHIM = Plural of the Hebrew noun EL. Used over 2,500 times in the O.T.; It is usually printed as 'LORD' (small capitals) when referring to the true God, or when referring to men it is printed in non- capitals. It is also sometimes printed as God, or god. Elohim is used not just for the true God, as in Gen.1:1---Ps.83:18.---Isa.12:2. ; 26:4, but is also used for; Heathen gods; Ex.19: 11.--Angels; Ps.8: 5.- Judges; Ex.21: 6.
In the Hebrew this word is plural in form, but singular in construction. Because of its plural form, it has been used as an argument to vouch for God's Trinity. However it is incorrect to use it this way. The plural is due to a Hebrew idiom use of a 'plural of magnitude or majesty.' It is like underlining, or repeating a word in order to emphasise it. The word gives an emphasis of importance. The word denotes respect or submission to any in a position of power or authority, be they God, angel, or man.- The word “Lord” as used throughout the Bible is used in a similar way in our English speaking society today, as a word of respect in the Judiciary, and in English aristocracy, and can be used for both God & man.
EL or ELOAH or the Aramaic form ELAH from which the Islam religion get the name of their God , “Allah” = This word is the singular form of ELOHIM and means The Powerful or Authoritive One.
EL, also has the meaning of God or god. The title, Eloah is used extensively in the Book of Job., also in Gen. 33:20. Ps.85: 8. 2 Sam.22: 33.

Such a concept does not come from the bible

I cited the bible. He learned obedience through the things he suffered.

Are you certain that "head" here means "authority"?
