Elojim or Elohim is the Hebrew word that is translated God and found in the first sentence of the Bible. When we pray to Elojim, we remember that he started it all, creating the heavens and the earth and separating the light from the darkness, the water from the mainland, the night of the day.

This ancient name for God contains the idea of ​​God's creative power as well as his authority and sovereignty. Jesus used a modality of the name in the prayer that he pronounced when he was dying on the cross: «At about three in the afternoon, Jesus shouted loudly:“ Eli, Eli, lama sabactani ”(meaning:“ My God, my God, Why have you forsaken me? ”)» (Matthew 27:46).
