in the mighty ones

Rootאלה (ʾ-l-h)
Core Meaningspower, might, divinity, divine powers
Semantic RangeSupreme God (singular sense with plural form, majestic plural); pagan gods (plural); divine council beings; judges/magistrates; angels; superlative for greatness.
Conceptual SignificanceElohim underscores God's supreme power and might, often in creation and sovereignty contexts; its plural form hints at divine complexity or council (e.g., Ps 82), emphasizing Yahweh's uniqueness amid polytheistic surroundings while applicable to human authorities, highlighting theological tension between monotheism and ancient Near Eastern divine plurality.
Morphological NotesHR/Ncmpa (preposition + noun common masculine plural absolute) or HC/Ncmpa; plural form of אֱלוֹהַּ (ʼĕlôah), often with singular verbs when referring to the God of Israel.
Rendering RationaleThis rendering preserves the plural form of אֱלֹהִים (HR/Ncmpa), reflecting its morphology as masculine plural with the preposition בְּ ('in' or 'with'), commonly translated as 'of God' but here root-aware to evoke divine powers or gods; it avoids singularizing to maintain grammatical plurality while connecting to the root's sense of might and strength. The construct state is captured through the idiomatic 'in the mighty ones' to fit contextual prepositional uses.
