taken of these passages. Some commentators think the plural forms
represent the plural of majesty. There is, however, no indication in the
Old Testament or in ancient monumental inscriptions that sovereigns had
adopted this style of speech. Nebuchadnezzar and Darius begin their
proclamations with the singular first personal pronoun "I"; not with the
plural "We" which modern kings assume. On the Moabite stone Mesha uses
"I," not "We," throughout the inscription in which he records his
achievements. Another view is that Moses, accustomed to hear of the
numerous gods of Egypt, used the plural inadvertently. This supposition
does not accord with any view of inspiration held by evangelical
churches. The interpretation which regards the passages as early
indications of the doctrine of the Trinity is simple and natural, and
accords with the principle of gradual revelation which is apparent in
Scripture.]
