Here is a really good explanation of Jewish polytheism.
This is a mishmash of truth, lies and misunderstandings. Of course there is not going to be any evidence of monotheism in either ancient Babylon or Canaan, which are held up as reprobate and given over to polytheism.
Another falsehood that is made throughout is that acknowledgement of other gods indicates belief in other gods. Clearly it doesn't. As Paul the apostle says, idols, which even he concedes, are no gods.
There is nothing to suggest that the Jews borrowed from the Babynians as to the creation story in captivity. That story may already have been well known in the ancient world, but it was written down in Genesis with a monotheistic slant.
The author is wrong as to YHWH in the archaelogical record. There are inscriptions to the "Shasu of YHWH" in Egyptian temples circa 1400BC. There is nothing to suggest that J & E were "independent." Nothing to suggest that Gen 2-11 were "mythical" even if difficult of interpretation.
Nothing to suggest that the making of a "primary god" denotes lingering belief in other gods.
Of the pyramid builders it was found that "they lived a short life and ... suffered from bad health, very much likely because of how hard their work was." If not slaves they were synonymous with slaves,
etc. This video is pretty much akin to holohoax propaganda. Believe it if you want, but I choose not to.
All I will say is that the polytheists were not deists in the classical sense of "no interaction at all." Their gods expressed themselves in natural effects and events, but that of itself is not inconsistent with Deism, which rejects only divine revelation or direct intervention of God in the universe by miracles. As I read it, revelation in and by nature,
natural laws and
Providence, is all compatible with deism.
