[Avodah] Elokim and elohim

I know that there are places in Tanakh where the word elohim means 
"judges" (more or less), and other places where Elokim is a name of 
Hashem.  And still others where elohim means false deities.

My question is, is there a source which states which ones are which in 
more vague instances?  For example, Genesis 3:5.  Is the word shem 
Hashem in that verse?

Thanks,
Lisa
