Three thousand years ago, in the Southwest Asian lands we now call Israel and Palestine, a group of people worshipped a complex pantheon of deities, led by a father god called El. El had seventy children, who were gods in their own right. One of them, known as Yahweh would become something far larger and far more abstract: the God of the great monotheistic religions. A fascinating examination of the real God of the Bible, in all his forms.
