If you will look back, I was articulating the perspective of Judaism, not my own. Judaism does not question the canonicity of Deuteronomy.kaufmannphillips wrote:
My comment didn't mention Deuteronomy. It addressed elohim. I do not regard Deuteronomy as canonical, so Dr. Fruchtenbaum has not set a line of skirmish for my belief system.

Did you write this: "Hear, O Israel - HSHM is our G-d; HSHM is One." That's the Shema from Deuteronomy 6:4 and that's why I quoted Deuteronomy. If you don't think Deuteronomy is canonical why on earth would you quote it in an attempt to make your point. Stunning!
I might be more striking than stunning. Even with my hair down.
