Today's episode is in response to a video I posted on my TikTok last week concerning the different gods and differentiation between the god of the Old Testament and the god of the New Testament.
The Old Testament would have many readers believe that Israel was a strict, monotheistic group of people who were determined to set themselves apart from surrounding Canaanite, polytheistic-practicing tribes. But monotheism 1) is not something that arose from these people, and 2) extends much farther back than the Babylonian Exile, which is where we see a strong push for the Yahweh-Alone movement.
