Hi Group
I was talking with some friends last night and they said they were told in the seminary that in Hebrew God's name is feminine. The only name used for God in the Old Testament that I could think of that would even come close to a feminine form would be 'eLOaH (Dt. 32.17; 2 Kings 17.31, etc. - used about 60 times in the OT).
Do any of your have any insights?
