Again, it doesn't matter how it looks to you or what you believe it to be....it is the history of religious belief in that region that defines the meaning.

Research the history of the region, the Jews borrowed and adapted not not only Yahweh from surrounding cultures but Adam and Eve, the Flood and other stories. It's all there to be found, if only you had the will to look.
