    Elohim just a poetic term representing multi-expect of Nature as it seems to do, you could translate geneses 1 without God. Gen 1:1 in Beginning Nature fashioned the Sky and Earth Gen 1:2 Earth was Chaos and Empty, Darkness was over the faces of the Ocean and the wind of Nature blew over...

    Gen 1:27 The Gods fashioned man in there own ressemblence, the ressemblence of the gods created males and females created them. Gen 1:27 would make sense with multiple gods in play, the ancient understood that both male and Female is needed to procreate although they where confused, e.g...

    I am using Blue Letter Bible and Hebrew Lexicon of Hebrew scriptures The Singular of Elohim is "'el", thus, i am going on the notion, If the Author intended Plural, so be it. There is no "In The" or "Upon the", in the Hebrew so i just used "upon the" at random Gen 1:1 Beginning the Gods...
