he Ugaritic texts are a corpus of ancient cuneiform texts discovered since 1928 in Ugarit (Ras Shamra) and Ras Ibn Hani in Syria, and written in Ugaritic, an otherwise unknown Northwest Semitic language. Approximately 1,500 texts and fragments have been found to date. The texts were written in the 13th and 12th centuries BCE.
The most famous of the Ugarit texts are the approximately fifty epic poems; the three major literary texts are the Baal Cycle, the Legend of Keret, and the Tale of Aqhat. The other texts include 150 tablets describing the Ugaritic cult and rituals, 100 letters of correspondence, a very small number of legal texts (Akkadian is considered to have been the contemporary language of law), and hundreds of administrative or economic texts.
Unique among the Ugarit texts are the earliest known abecedaries, lists of letters in alphabetic cuneiform, where not only the canonical order of Phoenician script is evidenced, but also the traditional names for letters of the alphabet.
Other tablets found in the same location were written in other cuneiform languages (Sumerian, Hurrian and Akkadian), as well as Egyptian and Luwian hieroglyphs, and Cypro-Minoan.
The Canaanite religion was the group of ancient Semitic religions practiced by the Canaanites living in the ancient Levant from at least the early Bronze Age through the first centuries AD. Canaanite religion was polytheistic and, in some cases, monolatristic.
Before the beginning of kingship in Sumer, the city-states were effectively ruled by theocratic priests and religious officials. Later, this role was supplanted by kings, but priests continued to exert great influence on Sumerian society. In early times, Sumerian temples were simple, one-room structures, sometimes built on elevated platforms. Towards the end of Sumerian civilization, these temples developed into ziggurats-tall, pyramidal structures with sanctuaries at the tops.
The Sumerians believed that the universe had come into being through a series of cosmic births. First, Nammu, the primeval waters, gave birth to Ki (the earth) and An (the sky), who mated together and produced a son named Enlil. Enlil separated heaven from earth and claimed the earth as his domain. Humans were believed to have been created by Enki, the son of Nammu and An. Heaven was reserved exclusively for deities and, upon their deaths, all mortals' spirits, regardless of their behavior while alive, were believed to go to Kur, a cold, dark cavern deep beneath the earth, which was ruled by the goddess Ereshkigal and where the only food available was dry dust. In later times, Ereshkigal was believed to rule alongside her husband Nergal, the god of death.
The major deities in the Sumerian pantheon included An, the god of the heavens, Enlil, the god of wind and storm, Enki, the god of water and human culture, Ninhursag, the goddess of fertility and the earth, Utu, the god of the sun and justice, and his father Nanna, the god of the moon. During the Akkadian Empire, Inanna, the goddess of sex, beauty, and warfare, was widely venerated across Sumer and appeared in many myths, including the famous story of her descent into the Underworld.
Sumerian religion heavily influenced the religious beliefs of later Mesopotamian peoples; elements of it are retained in the mythologies and religions of the Hurrians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Assyrians, and other Middle Eastern culture groups. Scholars of comparative mythology have noticed many parallels between the stories of the ancient Sumerians and those recorded later in the early parts of the Hebrew Bible.

IN CONCLUSION: RELIGIONS ARE NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE AND NOBODY IS WORSHIPPING GOD, ONLY AVATARS LONG GONE.
fantastic Thanks ..... Could you please stop asking mainstream scholars on is yhwh other gods,
They are one minute saying the rib story is from Enki etc etc . But then they say the bible ts monotheistic lol ...... They clearly have a bias towards abrahamic faiths .. Good information otherwise .
Y’all don’t understand the Bible, but most people don’t even understand the history documented in it. People really think satan was an angle that fell from heaven and not is a demon king.
@@shaqatwinters3180 that's what you think

I was raised a Seventh Day Adventist. My father was an ordained minister. When I found out everything I believed was a lie I couldn't breathe. I had my husband pull over so I could throw up. Like you I swore I would never give up my faith. Thank you for your story. I am not alone!!
I'm appalled to find out the truth as well.. my family now thinks I'm crazy and talking against God. Smh
I just concerned for them because they are still blinded by the lies..
me too i grew up COGIC and when i discovered this i was literally sick for a few days
Pretty shocking when you realize most of the world is delusional, isn't it? Makes being free of the toxic lies and dogmas of guilt shame and fear a little bittersweet, doesn't it?
Ewe
So how did you know it's a lie?
Of course the Hebrew Bible is a complete retelling of more ancient texts from cuinifrom texts Babylonia , Akkadian and also ancient Egyptian. I wish more Christians would come to terms with this
I wish you and everyone like you would find God and instead looking only in texts look into your own personal experiences because that is where God speaks to you,l
whats god's name?!
@gohnjohn737 I grew up in the Christian faith, Christian school, and Sunday and Wednesday nights. I am 53 now. I have loved the study of religion my whole life. The Bible says, "Whatever your hands find to do, do with all your might." I have, and I agree that the biblical text has so much that earlier religion put out first. The Egyptian Pharoah who worshiped one god, birth from a virgin, the flood story, and many others. Looking for the origin of religion has been lifelong for me.
Belief in God is faith. This look into religion is a look into people and how religion was developed over the thousands of years. God is there if you look. If you don't look, how can you really find it.
Religion is faith in people and what they say or have said. Faith in God must be searched for if you truly want to believe.
Religion is beautiful and horrible because it's people, God is above and beyond anything mankind has made. The story's are personalized renditions of historical events.

Fantastic guest. So glad he came on the show and shared his thoughts!

Really appreciate your approach and style. Looking forward to what you learn next!
The etymology of Eve, Ninti, and the rib is fascinating.
Also really interesting that the name for the "snake/נחש/naHash" is "חויא/Hiwiya" in Aramaic, which is very similar to the woman's name, "חוה/Hawa/Eve". I've always thought it funny that that story could have been titled: "חוה והחויא/Hawa w-ha-Hiwiya/Eve and the snake".
Ninti that's a big no. She has little to do with rib or side.
It is my belief that eve is the spirit or giver of life that was seperated from humanity for the period of this age. She has been venerated throughout the ages as the mother Goddess and Serpent.
@@kilowhiskeyalpha6078 wrong and false eve is Jewish fiction woman invented but has influence from the Mother Goddess actually Two Mother Goddesses One is Asherah and The Other Ishtar since the Hebrews have babylonian and Canaan/Palestine cells on them and their origin birth as a new race it is clear.
@@kilowhiskeyalpha6078 serpent is three almost four corruptions of the babylonian seprent and hittite Serpent monster.
Hawwa is in Arabic too we call Eve Hawwa
Huh, that Phoenician pun for “oil” and “8” makes me wonder if the Maccabean miracle story of the Temple oil lasting for 8 days is derived from this pun and became legend that bolstered the observance of Hanukkah.
Feeling the gnosis! Thanks for the great material Neal! I'm learning so much from your scholarship and the guests you discuss ideas with.
Thank you for this great show. I really love the ancient lore and exploring the fascinating etymologies of ancient names and words. I eagerly look forward to more of this!!
The Lady of the Rib’s story is amazing. This guy is a great scholar.
There is no rib in the Hebrew creation story
In the Hebrew creation story God made human man and woman later to separate them from one side of each other so they could face each other since they were back to back
@@yosefgreen3130 There’s two creation stories that differ. Which one is correct being that no one witnessed 4 days passing without the sun. It’s almost sounds as if the earth held itself. Unless it was popularly held that the earth was the center of the universe or Galaxy. Who was it that asked the Bible god to hold the earth still?

There recently was an ancient Hebrew shrine dug up that contained two stele purportedly representing Yahweh and his Ashera not unlike Shiva and his Shakti
Coming to the belief it’s all the emanation of the indo-aryans
The Bible is clear that Israelites corrupted themselves with gods.
The problem is the name confusion since Jews decided to keep it secret. YHWH or YHVH, Yahweh or YeHoVaH.
See Nehemia Gordon on research the original name.
But this appears to be an echo box and people are agreeing with what they think already.
My guess would be it's going to go a lot deeper into a unknown reason and understanding. But sincerely one should have a perfect fear and hatred with out sin. Bc it's been known in the past that folly leads to hatred of knowledge. Hmmm IDK 🤣 sounds good.
@@nikoknowledge6660 well it was Sindhu-saraswati civilization not indo-aryan, Aryan invasion has been disproved long back
The ruins or flood marks of river sarasvati are found and they are at least 150k + years old
And it was obviously emanation of sanatan dharma, bcoz before Judaism there was mostly either Zoroastrianism or local polytheistic culture which were
In rigved, There are couple of historical events called devasur sangram (wars between gods) and dashrajna war(battle of ten kings)
These two are found in almost every culture, like aesir-venir, ahura-daivas, the Viking version

King Melchizedek is nothing but avestan form of mleccha sadhak who was kicked out of India for commuting wicked activities
This is all mentioned in anacalypsis by godfrey higgins
Forgive me for commenting before I watch the video, but Ashratah was probably the wife of El, and mother of YHVH. The idea that YHVH had a wife is based on an interpretation of Ashratah as meaning "his Asherah", which is a bit strange grammatically. (I got this from Margaret Barker, she's great.)
My conclusions about -al and el- (baal, elohim) is that these are generic terms for first and above, hierarchically. Leader, Shepard or first principle. Just like the star in cuneiform. It points upwards. It has the same function. We often forget that names have a meaning, are constructed. My name means: of kingly splendour. It can be found in its components, etymologically. Jupiter also means sky daddy. Ju=deus (=shining), in derivative: sky, heaven, god. And piter=father (as in paternalistic). In its root these terms are pointing upwards. Even the generic term God means to pour (over) (from above). These terms all point in the same direction, which can be derived as constructed. .
Great explanation for the origins of the word Jupiter. Is there a similar explanation for Saturn? I’ve always wondered if that word had any deeper meaning.
@@VincentVoidheart I've heard it said in a different etymology video that Saturn is satan

Enki eating the plants and getting sick sounds a lot like Adam eating the Apple - especially in the context with the creation of Nin-Ti from his rib...
There was NO apple 🍏! Forbidden Fruit = SEX. How can eating an apple cause you to be thrown out of the Garden and open your eyes? People eat apples every day, and what happens, nothing!
@@anitajohn6641 I'm not saying that there was an apple. I'm saying this is (probably) where the authors of the bible took the idea "bad consequences of eating a plant" from.
all we know is what's been taught,word of mouth gossip recycled information that could all be made up

What about the sisters?
Enki and Prometheus is Lucifer
@@Gman12959when they say Lucifer is the biggest deciever, people really have everything infront of them and still deny it
This is thought provoking, funny how I was trying to figure out who was enki in the Bible, and if it does point to Adam it makes more sense. Slowly putting together our forgotten history.
It's weird hearing a secular non believing point of view on the old spirits in nature and the other spirits who created humankind. I'm just glad your covering this topic as a non believer, thanks 👍.
New subscriber, love your content and insight.
Ti also means arrow. First the cuneiform characters stand for concepts, then words, then sounds. if the character for ti originally meant arrow, then the arrow character comes to mean life because the syllable ti also means life. It's like us: "Waiting for you" is rendered "Waiting 4 you", just because for and four sound alike. And then you don't have to type so many buttons on your phone.
According to Pausanias
@@cindylomacchi4505 Thank you!
I may have to subscribe. I'm very interested in the origins of words & even the comments section is far more knowledgeable than me!
I’ve read that the Indo European word ‘Ag’ is the root of our words such as angel, agriculture, aggression. The imagery is a Shepard driving forward his flock
Hmmmm...ag- means to move or draw or drive (like the image you mentioned). El is a word for diety. So angels are the movers/ drivers of god? Sounds about right, angel driving the limo and gos is the boss in the backseat. Like my body is an angel while I-essence is in the backseat observing and deciding where to go.
I wonder if there’s a correlation with Silver on the periodic table?
Amazing. How’d I miss this? Checking out more work in Near Eastern studies now because of this.
Love this. Religion is man’s way of describing G-d. It’s an invention or construct. Spirituality is man Realizing that He is a part of G-d. Until one leaves the body, faith in G-d is enough. After one has learned to leave the body and attained enlightenment or at least the “i am” realization, one no longer needs faith because as a result of these realizations one has attained KNOWING. He no longer needs faith.
Beyond this physical universe is a hierarchy of a supreme being. We as beings of individual spirituality fall somewhere on this hierarchy scale. The higher you are, the less individuality there is. One becomes more and more one with this being. The end game is the realization that we are all one G-d. We are collectively the supreme being who is having individual experiences as us. Wrap your head around all that. In this physical world it is almost impossible until you step out of this plane.
If that's true, why are you scared of writing God's name? 😂😂
@kaijukojin4371 G-d is not religion as it is man made to explain the concept of the Creator. Whenever adressing Him, while we are in a lower for, or in a lower in carnation, it is necessary not to speak or write His Name, nor worship an imaginary image of the thought of what He might be. Spirituality is the revelation of knowing G-d as self. But you are still in a lower form of spirit until you leave this body forever or die to physicality.
You and i, in this physical fom, can't even imagine the complex simplicity of being, muchless imagine what and who G-d really is. No matter what spiritual state one attains or level of enlightenment achieved, He has already been there, achieved it, done it, and waiting for you.
I see this as explaining more about how humans change and grow over time, as far as faith goes. You absolutely hit the nail on the head with explaining that Love and Death are concepts we still don't have a firm grasp of their scope. Whereas, natural occurrences in nature are actually easily explained. As we grow in our knowledge, more natural occurrences are understood. But *concepts* remain subject to individual/group interpretation and can therefore change and grow with us to fill a need that can't be satisfied by science alone. Humans need purpose and guidance. And that's when belief overshadows science. Science still can't explain WHY humans do what we do. But faith in something can- whether it's faith in deities, astrology, politics, or whatever. Faith will always be a part of what sets humanity apart from other animals. It will constantly change to fit our needs as we continue to change ourselves. I doubt faith as a concept will ever go away. It might change as far as what we have faith in. But it will never go away
Great interview and great scholar
Fascinating stuff! Thanks for posting.
THis is so interesting. My background is in DIachronic Latin Linguistics, so I deal with etymologies all the time!
What’s the etymology of Latin?
@@jared_r atlatean, Atlantean.
The ten Commandments. you shall have no other gods before me. Does this mean that there is more than one God?
Of course it’s plural.
Yes, there are so many so called gods.
But not all so called gods were true God.
1 Corinthians 8:4-6 NIV
4 So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.” 5 For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), 6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.
It's about idol worship, not about other gods. It means you will not take anything besides Me for worship.
@@user-bp1is6gl9k The problem is that there is an interpretation that can mean whatever you want.
Moses and the monotheism is plagiarized from Akhenaten trying to institute monotheism and being chased out of Egypt. Also, Moses being down down the river in a basket as a baby is plagiarized from Sargon's story.
Moses is dated to around 1800 BC. I can envision the Menorah was Moses’ way of recreating a mobile version of the horns and solar disc on the head of Hathor. That would make Judaism Egyptian 2.0
Moses is considered a fictitious character by historians, some think he was created from a bunch of other oral story characters. Either way even the most orthodox sects of Judaism believe the Torah was given to Moses in 312 BC
Re the angels relation to Sumerian gods - angels represent planets like Michael is the sun, Gabriel is moon etc., so in that way they relate to old gods like shamash, nana /suen/sin etc
Yeah it’s all stolen from paganistic religions.
Same has is happening to me !! So appreciate you sharing and I am as well SO GRATEFUL to know the TRUTH even though I am an elder . Never to late ❤️
🤯1st time in my life I have noticed the El connection in Angel names. 😮 Micha-El, Azri-El, Uri-El and on and on. Ha!
AngEL, TempEL, ChappEL, BibEL, BabEL, EzekiEL, IsraEL, ELisha means EL is Yah, Bealiah means Baal is Yah, eerything is EL oriented until latter ones begin using Yah... as in Yahweh. its as big as an ELephant ( trumpet and thunder of EL)

Speaking of etymology, the biblical hero Samson is connected to the Babylonian sun god Shamash.
The Hebrew spoken language belongs to the Northwest Semitic spoken language family, and the Akkadian spoken language belongs to the East Semitic spoken language family.
The English name Samson comes from the Hebrew name Shimshon, which in turn comes from the Hebrew language word "shemesh", which means "sun".
The Akkadian language name "Shamash" refers to Shamash, the Babylonian god of the sun.
The Semitic Hebrew language word "shemesh" is related to the Semitic Akkadian language name "Shamash".
Therefore, there is an etymological connection between the biblical character Samson and the Babylonian sun god Shamash.

The cutting of his hair are the Sun ☀️ rays
@@slicc-CNo Absolutely. His hair can also be plants or vegetation (or perhaps herbs and drugs), since plants require sunlight to grow.
The origin of the word Ouranos is highly contested and we don't know for certain. It seems originally to be Worsanos from the PIE root of uers-. The word Wersē in Doric Greek, meaning Dew, and the Sanskrit Varsha, which means rain are cognates. So his name seems most likely to be derived from the idea of rain and moisture and he probably was originally a rain God who evolved to become a God of all the heavens.
No it was originally “the above” basically. That was first. Then that word was slightly morphed into a word for rain.
@@jared_r ok but rain comes from above so I can dig it🤔👍😊

@@staricovjek6293 again, those words follow from the original reference to how it looks “up there”
@@staricovjek6293 There is no evidence for that whatsoever. Orb and orbit are Indo-European and come from a root meaning circle/sphere; Ahura or Asura is a common group of Gods in Indo-European religions, related to Os, Aesir, Hasshu, and Ahu, all meaning lord, king, or God(s) in various Indo-European languages; Aura and Aurum experienced rhoticization from Auza and Auzom and are from the root h₂ews- meaning dawn, east, to become bright or red; Oracle is from the Indo-European root h₂er- meaning to praise, pray, or worship; Horizon is short for Horizon Kyklos in Greek meaning the separating/demarcating circle and comes from a root meaning boundary and to demarcate in Greek and Latin; and Orient literally means rising from the Latin verb Oriri and is of the well-attested Indo-European root of h₃er-. Aharon is disputed in its meaning and Hor is thought to be from the Egyptian Hr root meaning above, over, in the sky but then yes, Ur/Or is a Northwest Semitic root for light and to shine but is more likely from the Afro-Asiatic root of N-W-R but lost the initial N than to be derived from the Sumerian city of the same name.
The idea of the “rib” was symbolic for two ideas, one as an initial word for the abstract word “side” to convey the idea that female celestial image came from the side” of the male celestial figure when he laid at the NW sky region she emerges at the SE region. And two, for numerology, 24 (20, 40, 6 and 60) and 12 (10, 20, 3 and 30, 4 and 40).
I came to the same conclusion when I read the story of Enki and Nimhursaj.

I was under the impression from the seeming root El that it meant “high”, as in El Elyon (god the highest).
Languages generally don’t have ultimately-generic words for “god”, as is shown in the chart starting at 21:02.
In all the languages indicated, the word for “god” first meant something else.
El specifically was the head of the pantheon in Canaanite religion, correct?
Isn’t Hebrew and it’s religion(s) primarily a subset of Canaanite language and religion?
They obviously syncretized Sumerian religion at some point

*Ugarit and the Bible*
Many people are familiar with the texts found at Qumran, commonly known as the Dead Sea Scrolls, in the 1940s. But fewer people have heard of the Ugarit findings, which began to be unearthed in the late 1920s. Both discoveries greatly increased our knowledge and understanding of Biblical texts and also of the history surrounding the evolution of Judaism and Christianity.
The Dead Sea Scrolls impacted both the Old and New Testament interpretations, while the findings at Ugarit impacted only the Old Testament. *These texts and architectural inscriptions predate the Hebrew settlement at Canaan, but interestingly, they mention some of the same gods that appear in the Hebrew religious writings, produced after the Hebrew contact with the Ugarit region. The most significant god mentioned is El.* In one temple inscription he is said to be the father of Ba’al. In other mentions, he is even the father of Yaweh.
In the Old Testament, Ba’al is associated with the Canaanites. And he is described as the focus of their religious worship in those stories-while El is described as being another name for Yahweh, the Hebrew patron god. *In reality, however, based on the discoveries at Ugarit (the land called Canaan in the Bible), El is clearly the father of the gods in much the same way that Zeus is the head of the gods on Olympus in Greek mythology. And Yaweh is not another name for El, but a separate deity.* Like Zeus, El headed a pantheon. He was not only the father of mankind, but the leader of the Ugarit gods. *His pantheon, in Ugarit, is called the* ***Elohim*** *(literally, the plural of El).*
Using the book of Genesis as an example, the best scholarly estimates date it back to somewhere between 950 and 500 BC. *It appears that the writings were composed in two styles, one style preferring to refer to god as El and the other using YHWH (or Yahweh).* Eventually these texts came together into the form we have today, sometime around 450 BC. *Just to give some perspective, the best documented time in the Ugarit history was between 1450 and 1200 BC.*
According to many modern apologists, El is simply another name for god, or even a generic word for “god” used by the Hebrews; and Elohim is simply another form of El. However, Bible translators do translate Elohim as plural in some instances and do translate El to be a proper noun in some instances. Some apologists defend a wholly singular usage of Elohim by pointing to the inconsistency with which Elohim is used with singular verb forms; however, this does not rule out the very real (and likely) potential that as monotheism evolved out of polytheism, the Hebrew texts were adjusted to correct for this problem (as we discussed the evolution of the book of Genesis in the above paragraph). ***However, it does seem oddly coincidental-and difficult to overlook-that the Hebrews had significant contact with Canaan and then, some years afterward, wrote out a Hebrew religious mythology using a name for god that parallels the Ugarit mythology’s chief deity.*** *It is also odd that Elohim appears in Ugarit texts as a clearly plural form of El, and then later in a sometimes confused singular/plural fashion in the Hebrew texts.*
*The important question becomes, then: Is there any reason beyond the contact with Canaan to view the Hebrew deity as being synonymous with the Canaanite god El? The answer is “yes.”* There are parallels between the two gods. For example, if we look at more of the attributes of El in the Ugarit texts, we find that El had a consort, Asherah *(who was also, occasionally, recorded as the consort to Yahweh).* This would appear to distance the Hebrew El from the Ugarit El then, if there is no mention of the Hebrews combining El with Asherah. *However, there is mention in the Hebrew texts that illustrates that Asherah was connected with El in the minds of the Hebrews as well as in their worship. Twice in Jeremiah (chapter 7 and chapter 44), she is referred to as the Queen of Heaven, and it is clearly indicated that the Hebrews were worshipping her in those instances.* Also, in 2 Kings 18, it is noted that her objects of worship (the Asherah poles) were removed from the “high places” of worship to El/Yahweh.
*There is no doubt that as the Hebrews moved from polytheism, into henotheism, and ultimately into monotheism, that they adjusted their religious practices accordingly.* It is not surprising that the worship of Asherah was ultimately condemned, discouraged, and forbidden. *But what can’t be ignored is the fact that the Hebrews did acknowledge Asherah. They did worship her.* And they did associate her with El by placing her symbols in the same temples of worship. ***If Hebrews did not adopt the older Ugarit El, with which they were surely familiar, then it is very odd that Asherah also appears in their religious texts and worship.***
I would never underestimate the apologist’s ability to find a perspective that can reinterpret this data to make it less problematic. ***However, the clear and simply explanation is this: The Hebrews interacted with Ugarit, adopted their pantheon, and their religion evolved, as all religions do through time, to become a uniquely Hebrew monotheism.***

The Hebrew names Abraham and Sarah are connected to the Sanskrit names of Hindu gods Brahma and Sarasvati, who were also a husband-and-wife team.
Like Abraham and Sarah, the names beginning with Is- also originate in India from the Sanskrit language. Ish, meaning "love" or "desire", is an epithet of the god Shiva. Ishmael, from Ish Mahal, means "Shiva the Great", Isaac, from Ish Yak, means "Shiva's Friend", and Israel, from Ish Rahel, means "Shiva's Rule". Even the name of Islam is from Ish Ayalam, meaning "Shiva's Abode", alluding to the Kaaba, which in pre-Islamic Arabia was a place of worship for several major Hindu gods as well as native Arabian Semitic ones. Muhammad (from either the title Mahatma "Great Soul" or from Maha Dev, "Great God"), came from a family with hereditary priests of Shiva. (The above information is from several websites documenting the Vedic Hindu roots of Islam.)

THESE SUMERIANS MYTHS SHOULD BE IN CHILDREN'S BOOKS
😁🤣🫂
Excellent place to start.
Or at least accurately made into a epic movie series
First thing to know, is that Genesis is a Cliff-Notes retelling of the earlier Sumerian stories. It contains the same but older Sumerian stories of creation, the great flood, Noah, (Udnapishtu), the Garden of Eden, the transformation of mankind and subsequent exodus from the Garden.
This parallel between the Sumerian stories and the Old Testament wasn't widely known until after 1835, when the Behistune Memorial in southern Iran was later decoded, (it is similar to the Rosetta Stone, but for Acadian languages, which enabled the translation of the earlier inscrutable Sumerian cuneiform). This opened a huge door to the understanding of the origins of the book of Genesis, and the echoes of this discovery haven't reverberated through orthodoxy as yet, often meeting with off-hand dismissal and arrogant predjudice. It will take another 100 years from now for the older scholars to die off, older expositories to be rewritten, and the masses to open their eyes.
So, for orthodox Jewish, Christian, and Muslim believers, the next thing to know is that the Sumerian stories were not "God" stories at all, but rather of the plural elohim, or "Annunaki", the sky people.
Next, YHVH did not make an appearance until Moses. Before that, the Israelites worshipped a pantheon of gods, including Asherah, the sky goddess, who came to teach agriculture, animal husbandry, etc. She was "for" the people, and highly regarded. In Kings and Samuel, we see examples where the genocidal, petty, domineering, murderous, threatening being called YHVH was actually despised by the people. Yeah, we never hear sermons about that...
Before Josiah, the Hebrew books referenced the "elohim". In about 600 bc, the "boy king" Josiah sought to unite the seat of power, divert all offerings and taxes, and divert worship from all the various far-flung temples of various deities to Jerusalem. Josiah ordered the destruction of the Asherah poles, destroyed the various temples and killed their preists, and instituted the sole worship of YHVH, making Jeruselem and its Yahwist temple the new center of all wealth and power of the Israelites. Whether under Josiah or Ezra, it remains that in the Hebrew books, everywhere the earlier plural word "elohim" was redacted and the singular "YHVH" was inserted. This ham-fisted redaction left a conflicted sense in the sentences, which is one of many clues as to the redaction that sought to "monotheize" Judaism. For just one quick example, if there is a sentence that reads: "Cars are driving on the road", the word cars is plural and this matches the plural form of "are driving". But if the singular word "truck" is substituted for the plural word "cars", now the sentance awkwardly reads: "Truck are driving on the road". That is just one small example of the many ways we know YHVH was plastered over any earlier reference to the Elohim. Not to mention the chronological impasse, because YHVH did not reveal himself until Moses' time, and before that the word YHVH did not even exist in any of the Hebrew books. The word "YHVH" was added retroactively.
And none of that even touches on the moral conundrum of a genocidal, spiteful OT "god", that does not square with the merciful and kind God of Jesus.
Most English translators just used the English word "Lord" for any reference to YHVH, not knowing any better.
That is how the being YHVH and it's actions became associated with the kind, merciful God of Jesus. A grand misunderstanding.
Judaism did not start out with "God" stories at all, but rather the borrowed Sumerian stories of the Sky People. Which fits, because Abraham and Sarah were called out of Ur of the Chaldees, and brought their earlier Sumerian accounts of creation, flood, Eden, etc with them.
Note that Jesus never lent his support for the Old Testament, and only mentioned it when reaching people in their then-current understanding and background, and contrasting their older, errant beliefs about God with His new concepts. As in, "you have it heard said 'this', but I tell you 'that'," like the contrast between the eye-for-an-eye, tooth-for-a-tooth Law of Moses, which Jesus contrasted in the Sermon on the Mount and Beatitudes.
In Exodus and Numbers, when the Israelites were thirsty and starving, they asked Moses to entreat the YHVH being for water. Moses did so, and YHVH spitefully sent them serpents and snakes to torment them and bite them for arrogantly daring to ask YHVH for sustenance.
Jesus alluded to this event, saying, "Which of you would give your child a snake, when they ask for water?" Rhetorical, and a reference to an often abusive being that once had rule over the Israelites.
Jesus did not reiterate, parrot, or lend support for the OT, except as it relates to His being, and for contrasting the OT teachings with His new teachings.
Also let's bare in mind the sky god mother earth story is told though out the world at different points, from India Iran, Scandinavia , England. Seems there has always been a foundation which seems to have taken an alternative route with the abrahamic religions which seems to have alternative goals for humanity.
Ouranus' name etymology and meaning..Maybe pick from these options: Ohr (light of God in Hebrew) and/or Aur (gold colored/root in Greek) and/or Hor/Har for mountain in Hebrew or Hor for Horizon/ distant one / boundary marker (different Egyptian options) ....So maybe it's Hor-anu ie: Distant/Horizon Sky Lord..... which reminds me of Horemaket (Horus in the Horizon) from Ancient Egypt. Could also be light/gold of the sky. Maybe Mountain Horizon of the Sky? Just some thoughts.
(O)urano/us also means 'Sky' in Greek, too?
@@TheSapphireLeo I've also heard that the Ancient Egyptian myths refer to the Mediterannean sea as Ouranous (haven't verified that yet tho) ....

Etymology is a fun topic

BA'AL is Marduk and Ea/Enkis son.
*Elohim as Pantheon*
“The most natural way of reading that text [Genesis 1:26] within an Ancient Near Eastern context is to think of a pantheon, or a council of gods, or something like that, not… one god talking to his son that is himself.”
Matthew Monger, PhD at 16:58 in Gnostic Informant CZcams channel video “Etymological Roots of the Bible”
Save that for your notes, people.
“Elohim” is sprinkled throughout the Tanakh. For example, if a bondsman wants to remain with the master because the master is holding the bondsman’s wife and children as lifetime chattel slaves, the bondsman can remain with her by having an awl run thru his ear and appearing before Ha Elohim (the pantheon? The gods?).
Exodus 21:2-6
Ha Elohim is usually translated as Judges here.
This is contradictory to itself
Other gods apart from Yahweh are individually called 'elohim' as well. There's not much case that 'elohim' means a pantheon.

Also 'elohim' is used singularly as an adjective Genesis 23:6.
Elohim is an irregular word in Biblical Hebrew that doesn't always convey plurality. There are instances in Biblical Hebrew in which words use the typical suffixes for plurality to denote aspects other than plurality.
@@theophilussogoromo3000 But Yahweh is also called Elohe many times , specifically Your Elohe (EloheKa).

Dr Kipp Davis points out that the Dead Sea Scrolls version of
Deuteronomy 32:8-12 clarifies that El Elyon was the chief god and Yahweh one of his underlings. The current biblical text (Masoretic Text, Leningrad Text, and translations from them) doesn’t make sense, since the term Israel is used as if it means All People as opposed to Jacob, who represents the Jews. Jacob *was* Israel.

“When El Elyon apportioned the nations, when he divided the sons of Adam, he fixed the boundaries of the people according to the numbers of the sons of the gods (not Israel). Thus Yahweh’s portion is his people Jacob, the region of his hereditary property.”
So El Elyon divvied up the land and Jacob’s people got Yahweh’s territory.

So do you think this absorbing of ‘the giver of life” being changed from a female goddess to making the biblical “giver of life” by creating her from a human man’s rib and then punishing her for her wanting to have knowledge like the gods did because in the bible it says “mankind is like us gods now, and now they know good an evil” (keep with me, lol) was really just a way to enforce patriarchy? At first she’s a goddess who’s power and role is removed from her. So now she’s not only human, but now she owes her very existence to man and the only reason he wanted her (Adam) is because he was lonely. It establishes her as his mere entertainment and not necessarily an equal being who exists in her own right. I mean at first you have people worshiping female and male gods, each having their own strengths and weaknesses. The writers of the bible wanted to establish themselves as patriarchal and this was a perfect way to put women and their gods in a state if submission and subjugation?! I mean…wow. Mind blown. There you are folks. The power of words has placed 50% of our human population into a forced state of subjugation, submission, often told they are unintelligent, beaten, raped, forced to marry, forced to be sex slaves, sold as commodities, unable to decide our own reproduction and unable to have their own opinions or beliefs. I’m broken hearted by the power of the “men” who wrote the bible so they could infiltrate their own selfish wishes onto humankind. It’s nice to know in the beginning it didn’t work very well and the common people still worshiped their female goddess figurines, but being a sexually dimorphic species the men are stronger and ultimately when words alone don’t work, a good beating over many generations in fact, have. It makes me so sad for all the women who “could have been” something amazing. All the wisdom lost, all the progress that could have been if we only viewed each in a more equal intellectual light.

*Functioning as a singular or plural in the context* 15:40
Is that crucial to the meaning *if* Elohim is a pantheon? Could a collective noun in Hebrew be used as singular in some cases and a plural in others?
In English, they can be both, depending on whether the members are acting separately or as a group, altho in American English, I almost never see or hear that plural.
But acknowledging the difference among members is consistent with a plural verb in the Genesis 1:27 passage, I.e. due to the difference in appearance between the males and females.
Other gods in the Hebrew Bible are individually called 'elohim' as well. I don't think there's much for the claim that 'elohim' means a pantheon.
