Aha! Now we are finally getting somewhere. But my friend you still have not answered my question. After spending ages trying to explain why that verse (Genesis 1:26-27) would gell well with the Christian trinitarian paradigm and you rejecting it, I have then asked you to provide a better framework for understanding the "US" in Genesis.

You then mentioned the divine council and I have then asked you to square your idea of God using US in Genesis 1 in reference to Himself and the divine council with the idea that ONLY God created man and creation and that man is made ONLY in the image of God (NOT the divine council). The fact I see no reference to the divine council creating or to the fact anybody else other than God creates man and creation according to scripture in your response makes me think you don't believe the divine council accounts for the US in Genesis consistently with the rest of scripture?

If you still think the divine council accounts for it then please show me scripture that says the divine council created and if you don't think it doesn't I ask again, please give me a workable model that accounts for the plurality within the singular God of the Hebrew scriptures outside of the trinity.

Again, the first Christians were not Hindu or American they were Jewish and had a Jewish understanding of the scripture. So the dichotomy between Christian and Jewish interpretations you keep making is untenable...but I digress...could you provide a better framework to account for plurality and singularity of the Hebrew God please?
