Episode 46: God (and His Biblical Names)
from Words for Granted - An etymology and linguistics podcast
The word 'God' is not derived from the original Biblical texts. Rather, it's a term from Germanic paganism that was adapted to Christianity. In the original Hebrew of the Old Testament, God is called by many names, and these diverse titles don't necessarily translate clearly into English. In today's episode, we dissect a handful of Hebrew terms for God that are used in the original Hebrew of the Bible.
