    Here’s a fun fact: Some scholars believe Genesis 1 is a later addition than the rest of the story, because Judaism was originally polytheistic.

        Correct, and fundamentally you don’t make laws to prohibit something nobody is doing.

        A few different gods had to get rationalized or syncretized in one way or another as I understand it.

        Not only Baal but that pesky Asherah and her complicated and inconvenient situationship with YHWH.
