Noun, sing., masc.:
- God (Strong 430)
Noun, plur., masc.:
- ruling spiritual entities (Strong 430)
The exact meaning of this word is dubious. It is supposed that it may mean "angels" or "rulers".
Dr. Michael S. Heiser claims[1] that elohiym (in plural form only) in Hebrew Bible means the same as "angels" in New Testament.
Victor Porton's opinion: Yahweh means "democratic way of governance of the infinite universe". The members of council are called אלהים. Thus אלהים means both the supreme God Yahweh (as a whole) or gods members of the divine council. This explain why the same word is used for both God Yahweh and gods.
