Perhaps Christians should be forbidden to read Greek, then...What language was the Torah written in? Because “elohim” was used in Genesis, as I recall.

Elohim still means judge not God. In all cases it was giving an attribute of God. Calling someone Elohim does not make him a god it means he is a judge. Calling God Elohim is referencing His attribute of being the supreme judge, not His divinity.
