It is often used to refer to the God of Israel, emphasizing His might and power. In some contexts, it can also refer to false gods or deities of other nations. The word is frequently used in compound names for God, such as "El Shaddai" (God Almighty) and "El Elyon" (God Most High).<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near Eastern context, "El" was a common term for deity and was used in various cultures, including the Canaanites, where El was considered the chief god. In the Hebrew Bible, the use of "El" underscores the monotheistic belief in the one true God who is powerful and sovereign over all creation. The Israelites distinguished their God, Yahweh, from the gods of surrounding nations by emphasizing His unique attributes and covenant relationship with His people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. pronoun<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>these<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>these (8), those (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I. <font class="hebrew2">אֵל</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>pronoun plural masculine & feminine</b></font> = the more usual <font class="hebrew2">אֵלֶּה</font>, <em>these</em> <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/20-8.htm">1 Chronicles 20:8</a>; with article <font class="hebrew2">הָאֵל</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/19-8.htm">Genesis 19:8</a>; <a href="/interlinear/genesis/19-25.htm">Genesis 19:25</a>; <a href="/interlinear/genesis/26-3.htm">Genesis 26:3</a>; <a href="/interlinear/genesis/26-4.htm">Genesis 26:4</a>; <a href="/interlinear/leviticus/18-27.htm">Leviticus 18:27</a>; <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/4-42.htm">Deuteronomy 4:42</a>; <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/7-72.htm">Deuteronomy 7:72</a>; <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/19-11.htm">Deuteronomy 19:11</a>.
