    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.
