    About Yahweh

    Yahweh is an ancient deity from Israel and Judah. He originates from the Iron Age, possibly even earlier, and possesses attributes of weather and war deities. He fructifies the land and leads the heavenly army against enemies. Early Israelites were polytheistic and worshipped Yahweh alongside various Canaanite gods and goddesses.
