Even so, consider Paul acknowledging the existence of many gods while proclaiming loyalty to one: "For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many), But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him." 1 Cor 8:5-6. Also: "Among the gods [there is] none like unto thee, O Lord; neither [are there any works] like unto thy works." Ps 86:8; "God standeth in the congregation of the mighty, he judgeth among the gods.'" Psalm 82:1. "For you, O Lord, are most high over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods." 97:9; "Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess." Judges 11:24. And who were the Bene Elohim who married the human women, resulting in Giants, per Genesis? They show up again in the conversations between God and Satan in Job -- check it out.
