Just want to add one thing:
When I asked Jul 9 about the possibility of a majestic plural in Is 62:5
(BNYK = Builder or sons), I was answered that majestic plurals are very
rare, practically used only in the words elohim, adonim, bealim and
teraphim, and certainly _not_ used in metaphores such as the said BNYK.
Would this B:(OZ:RAY contradict this, or is there another explanation?
And
does anyone know of any other verses where you have a title or metaphor
for God that is put in plural just because it's our beloved and majestic
Lord?
