Elohim Sense Errors
Logos contains sense errors in Psalm 82:6 and 138:1. Both uses of Elohim are tagged as "God (Israelite)." The first verse may describe angels or people, etc. The second verse appears to describe angels. These referents are not the one true God of Israel.
There is a third possible error in Psalm 45:6. The use of Elohim is tagged as "God (Israelite)." But the vocative here describes a historical human king (possibly Solomon). Yes, I know that Hebrews 1:8 attributes this verse to the Messiah. But the Old Testament should be read and interpreted on its own in its historical context. Hebrews 1:8 does not contradict the original understanding of Psalm 45:6.
I'm not seeking a heated discussion on Psalm 45:6. If you don't agree, feel free to disagree.
May God bless your study.

The Psalm 82:6 reference is following the Dead Sea Scrolls and not the MT.
See Heiser, The Unseen Realm for information on this and some of other tags you are pointing out.

Psalm 82:6 does not represent an issue between the MT and the DSS. The MT says: "I said you are gods, sons of the Most High all of you." You may be mistaking this verse for Deuteronomy 32:8.

Agreed. These should definitely be changed.

Can someone in Logos please look into the tagging of these verses? Thank you.

Have you compared this against the Andersen-Forbes clause visualization. I do not know enough Hebrew to have an informed opinion but I do see the possibility of either interpretation here. I agree FL needs to weigh in.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

There is an each way 'bet' here as both are also tagged <Person Any Deity>, and there are another 36 instances i.e. where <Person Any Deity> INTERSECTS <Sense God (Israelite)>
