laeÞ-tybe( hleî[] ~Wq± bqoê[]y:-la,( ‘~yhil{a/ rm,aYOÝw: Genesis 35:1

The first “God” is elohim and is singular because the verb (in red) is
singular. In the phrase “to the god who appeared,” the word God is
singular and El, not elohim. The following verb (in red) is singular.
So taking 35:1 and 35:7 in tandem, Jacob saw El, the god of Israel,
and the gods appeared to him – the council. There’s a lot of coll
stuff like this in the Hebrew text that’s missed.
4) Finally, a note on ha-elohim. This form of elohim with attached article
can also be either singular or plural; it is not always plural. The above Gen
35:7 is an example where it is plural. Below is a clear singular reference.

TNK Deuteronomy 4:35 It has been clearly demonstrated to you that
the LORD He alone is God; there is none beside Him.
The highlighted word is Yahweh, the LORD, the God of Israel. This
is followed by the clause, “for HE [3rd singular pronoun in blue] is
ha-elohim.” That is, He is THE God (par excellence). There is
none beside HIM [another singular pronoun]. Ha-elohim here is
clearly singular according to the grammar.
