The almighty God is being interpreted in Hebrew to mean________?
Answer Details
The Hebrew word for the almighty God is "El Shaddai". This name for God appears in the Old Testament of the Bible and is often translated into English as "God Almighty" or "The Almighty God." The word "El" means "God" or "mighty one," while "Shaddai" is thought to come from the Hebrew word for "breast" or "mountain." This has led some scholars to interpret "El Shaddai" as "God of the Mountain" or "God who is sufficient or all-sufficient." Therefore, "the el-sheddai God," is the correct answer.
