Elohim is a word used frequently in Scripture, but with vastly different meanings. Elohim is most often used for God, but can be translated false gods, judges, and leaders. The first use is:

Genesis 1:1. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Elohim is plural, so when it refers to God, it is called the Majestic Plural as we often hear from a politician speaking of some project in the plural, saying “We have said this before…” when it was just that person saying it.
