torah study - Elohim plural singular



Reading many questions relating to mine and the comments that were given, made me wonder.


When Elohim thought of creating the human being (Bereshit 1:26) He spoke (singular): “Let Us make… and after Our Tzelem and Our Demut” But verse 27 and 5:1 shows that Elohim made (singular) the human being after His Tzelem and His Demut. Why did Elohim refer to Us and Our, when in fact it was He and His?
