The Psalms of Asaph (English: / ˈ eɪ. s æ f / Ay-saf; [1] Hebrew: אָסָף ’Āsāp̄, "Gather" [2]) are the twelve psalms numbered as 50 and 73–83 in the Masoretic Text, and as 49 and 72–82 in the Septuagint. They are located in the Book of Psalms in the Hebrew Bible (which is also called the Old Testament).
Later in this Psalm, the word "gods" is used (in the KJV): Psalm 82:6 – "I have said, Ye [are] gods; and all of you [are] children of the most High." Instead of "gods", another version has "godlike beings", [12] but here again, the word is elohim/elohiym (Strong's H430). [13] This passage is quoted in the New Testament in John 10:34. [14]

Radak agrees that this is a reference to angels but also presents the alternative view that the plural form in the verse is a majestic plural, as seen in other verses such as Psalms 149:2 and Job 35:10. [38] Elohim can be seen used in reference to the angels in a variety of other cases, such as in Psalms 8:6 and 82:1–6. [39] [40] [41]
This is the Logos through whose streams rolling downward forms had descended from above, and generations of mortal men had taken place; but now Jesus, like his Old Testament namesake, rolls the stream upwards, and then takes place a generation not of men, but of gods, for to this name the new-born seed may lay claim (Psalms 82:6). But if they ...
