Africa culture, language and tradition is so deep, darn these colonizers.

Eleda is sometimes translated to soul in English.
The Modern English word soul, derived from Old English sáwol, sáwel which means immortal principle in man.
But if we to look at it as it is pronounced “ELEDA”, it means The Creator.

Translation causes words to lose their true meaning.

God created eleda (human soul/spirit)
Yes; There is life after death. The spirit don't just have the body to live as a human in our physical world.

TheWolfen:

Which God?
How can eleda be created. Do you know what eleda means?

Maynman:


Which God?

God the Creator of Heaven and everything your eye can see and can't see on your planet earth including moons and the stars that support life on your planet

TheWolfen:

God the Creator of Heaven and everything your eye can see and can't see on your planet earth including moons and the stars that support life on your planet

Many gods lay claim to that.
“God” is a a title not a person.

ELedumare
ELohim
ELeda.

The word EL is said to be of the Semitic origin, a tribe in the Middle East region. Mesopotamia state.

Was Middle East region part of Africa before the Suez Canal was built?

There is a God that lords over all gods.
These gods you refer to are mostly fallen angels turn demons and the children born by these demons when they got cast out of heaven following their rebellion against God ( their creator and the creator of all things )
Angel Michael and his host of Angels fought the rebellions angels when they fell from grace and cast them out of heaven. They came to earth and start their confusion and false teachings among humans, Interbreeding with the daughters of men to produce Nephilims( giants of demon blood and human ) which God forbids and destroyed them.

Ooh you are talking about the Israelites gods.
But which one of them? Elohim? Yahweh? Asheera? Etc??

Maynman:
Eleda means soul in English.

"Eleda" in what language means soul in English?

Africa, after all, has many cultures, languages and traditions, and you yourself posted it meant creator in Yoruba.

Bud, You didn’t see this earlier?

But if we are to look at it as it is pronounced “ELEDA”, it means The Creator.

I did see it. In particular that, "each human being has three aspects to existence: emi, the spirit; ojiji, the shadow; and eleda, the guardian", which reminds me of the Christian's Trinity, along with "El" of prechristianity, indicating some commonality.

Why do you translate your Eleda as soul?

Your hypocrisy is showing. I know your pain.

Maynman:

I guess I must be glad that you can't possibly be capable of telling others what they can see with their own eyes.

Is it hypocrisy to ask why you translate your Eleda as soul, May?

You are desperate, Bud. You will argue over anything.
Are you doing all these for viewers? Or self enlightenment?

Maynman:

I am not arguing, May. I asked a simple question and you've gone creating crap in your own head to believe as you repeatedly do. Might I not be asking to self enlighten you?

God is for humanity and isn't just Israelite god. If you looking for the undiluted truth go pick up The holy bible (NKJV) .
I can guarantee you will only find false teachings by Satanist to deceive humans on internet.( it all about little truth not to arouse any suspicion and then garnish it with big lies )
Everything you looking from the days of the old testament down to the new covenant with Jesus in new bible testament( which Christians live by) is there for you to find the truth about God.
But if you searching for gods ( fallen angels and their demonic children) given different names in different cultures across the world
Then you can go read the lies google told about them.
Yes people worship gods instead of God.
So my friend choose your side in peace. God gave everyone freewill to make his/her own choice but don't mix up the two.
God has many names and those names can only be bear by God. For example alpha and omega ( the beginning and the end) I am that I am and other names of God as written in the Bible. Anything not in the bible is false

Ah. So guardian soul. Thanks for answering. A guardian soul can be your creator, I suppose.

Now, do you believe you were created, May?

If so, what created May?

Not so fast. Why did you intentionally omit the “soul”? It doesn’t fit your agenda?

It was an honest omission, May, stop making up crap in your head to believe. Note it acknowledged in the post quoted.

Eleda as soul in English.

I do accept it could also mean guardian soul.

Religious language is very woolly like that and could be given multiple meanings, which is why one must not assume words always mean what one understands.

What one doesn’t understand In English.
Eleda means the Creator if pronounced.


All these were explained earlier. I know you are a slow learner bud.

Maynman:


But you can’t lie to yourself, can you?

Of course I can't lie to myself. I also can't accept that you who has never met buda can know buda better than I do, which is why it's hard to believe what you believe about buda, May.

I mean, I have buda before me to check the evidence, while you just make up crap about buda and believe it for some odd reason best known to you.

I have a broken buda here too, you see coincidence?
I’ll go repair the buda soon, bud.

I can now see where the pain and desperation is coming from, bwahahahah

There are three common concepts that always confuse many learners in Yorùbá language:
Adẹ́dàá
Aṣẹ̀dàá
Ẹlẹdàá
While the first two sometimes are used for the creator the third "Ẹlẹdàá" simply means the "guardian angel" and most people do refer to it as "Orí".
Though it's all based on common superstition from one culture to another, the Ibos do refer to Ẹlẹdàá as Chi, so while an ibo person will say "Chimo" Yorùbá will say "Ẹlẹdàá mi" both are referring to their imaginary guardian angel!

No, it means “guardian soul” in English language.
If pronounced. It means “the Creator.”
PETERU KINNI 4:19
Nítorí náà, kí àwọn tí ó ń jìyà nípa ìfẹ́ Ọlọrun fi ọkàn wọn fún Ọlọrun nípa ṣíṣe rere. Ọlọrun Ẹlẹ́dàá kò ní dójú tì wọ́n.

And your examples are flawed , witness of Jehovah aka William Tyndale.
So in Igbo is “Chi” an Angel?

It's a pity you choose to derail your own threads, May. It diminishes what you may have to say, which is a great pity.

I'll continue with my patients towards your ad hominems. I love seeing how long it takes some to grow and mature if they do at all.
