Your link agrees with everyone else and translates the word as Deity. Deity is a being a person that holds a particular position, or state.

Deity is not translated as a person, but as a state of being divine, or being God. It has nothing to do with a "position" you "hold."

One can not simply be a state

No one is not, but one exists in a state, or in a condition that defines him.

Only a Person can be God.
