EN[In Genesis 1:1-2:3 the Most High is constantly called God (Heb. Elohim); but in 2:4-3:24 He is called Lord God (Heb. Jehovah Elohim), and in chapter 4, Lord (Heb. Jehovah). From this it has been inferred that these are by two separate writers, one of whom is in the habit of using the Divine name Elohim, while the other makes use of the Divine name Jehovah; the former of these hypothetical personages is accordingly denominated the Elohist, and the latter the Jehovist. But this assumption is altogether unnecessary. The alternation of these Divine names, both here and elsewhere throughout the Pentateuch, is to be accounted for—not by a diversity of writers, but by a difference in the signification and usage of the names themselves. God made Himself known to the chosen race as Jehovah, the God of revelation and of grace; Elohim is the general term for God in His relation to the world at large and to all mankind. Hence in describing the creation of the world (1:1-2:3), Elohim is the name proper to be used; in 2:4-chapter 4, Jehovah is appropriate, because the theme is the establishment of God's kingdom among men—as shown first in the primeval estate of man, then in the promise of redemption after the fall, and in His dealings with Cain until he went out from the presence of the Lord, the seat of God's revelation. The different diction of chapters 1 and 2 is due, not to diversity of authorship, but to a difference in the subject treated and in the thought to be expressed. Elohim, the God of creation, destroys the work of His own hands because of the perversion of His creatures from the end for which they were made; at the same time He makes provision for the preservation of the various species of animals which He has brought into being. Jehovah, the God of revelation and redemption, puts an end to the downward progress of wickedness, which threatens to thwart His scheme of grace; but He watches over the safety of Noah and his family, and accepts his worship. The Divine names are used throughout in accordance with their proper meaning and their ordinary usage. W. H. Green.]

中〔在创世记 1:1-2:3 里，至高者一律被称为『神』（希伯来文 Elohim）；但在 2:4-3:24 里，他被称为『耶和华神』（Jehovah Elohim），在第 4 章里则称『耶和华』（Jehovah）。有人据此推断：这些段落出自两位不同的作者之手，其中一位习惯用神名 Elohim，另一位则用神名 Jehovah；于是前一位假想中的人物被命名为『以罗欣典作者』（Elohist），后一位为『耶和华典作者』（Jehovist）。但这一假设全无必要。这些神名的交替使用——无论在此处还是在五经其他各处——都不该以作者之不同来解释，而应以这些名字本身在含义与用法上的差别来解释。神向选民所启示的自己是『耶和华』——启示与恩典之神；而 Elohim 是指神与整个世界、与全人类之关系的通称。因此，在描述世界受造时（1:1-2:3），Elohim 正是当用之名；在 2:4 至第 4 章，Jehovah 才合宜——因为那里的主题是神的国在人间的建立：先见于人原初的境况，再见于堕落后救赎的应许，又见于神对该隐的处置，直到该隐从耶和华面前（即神启示的所在）出去为止。第 1 章与第 2 章用词的不同，并非出于作者之异，而是出于所论主题与所欲表达之思想的不同。Elohim——创造之神——因他的受造之物背离受造的目的而毁灭自己手中的工作；同时他又为所造各类动物的存留作出预备。Jehovah——启示与救赎之神——终止了那威胁要挫败他恩典计划的罪恶下滑之势；但他看顾挪亚一家的安全，也悦纳他的敬拜。这些神名自始至终都是按其本义与惯常用法而使用的。格林（W. H. Green）〕
