Asherah: see God & Elohim & Heaven & Bible & Old Testament & Apocrypha & Gods

Francesca Stavrakopoulou TV - Empires Special: Kingdom of David TV - Bible Secrets Revealed TV - 

 

 

53,838.  The ancestors of Judaism and Christianity believed in many gods.  And God had a wife.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Asherah)  Dr Francesca Stavrakopoulou, Senior Lecturer in Hebrew Bible Studies, University of Exeter, Bible’s Buried Secrets: Did God Have a Wife? 2/3

 

53,849.  A female counterpart, a goddess ... It’s the word Asherah.  The word is found forty times ... But why is the Bible so unsettled by this apparent object? ... Archaeology now shows us that Asherah wasn’t always an object.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Gods & Elohim & Asherah)  ibid.

 

53,850.  Asherah’s role is of a life-giving goddess.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Gods & Elohim & Asherah)  ibid.

 

53,851.  The Tree of Life was frequently used to represent the goddess.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Gods & Elohim & Asherah)  ibid.

 

53,852.  All across Israel, in almost every excavation of ancient domestic buildings, archaeologists are unearthing female figurines.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Gods & Elohim & Asherah)  ibid.

 

53,853.  The Israelites were polytheists.  And God had a wife.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Gods & Elohim & Asherah)  ibid.

 

53,855.  Judaism and Christianity are proud of their monotheistic pedigree ... This history has been skilfully manufactured by the scribes who composed these ancient texts.  The claims that Abraham and his descendants worshipped a unique and distinctive God just don’t stand up.  The truth about the Bible is that for most of its time its people were polytheists.  And their chief God had a wife.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Gods & Elohim & Asherah)  ibid.

 

53,856.  In toppling the goddess from Heaven monotheism disempowered women.  (God & Bible & Old Testament & Gods & Elohim & Asherah)  ibid.

 

 

12,258.  The Book of Deuteronomy banned the worship of Asherah and other pagan gods.  (Bible & Old Testament & Israel & Gods & Asherah)  Empires Special: Kingdom of David: The Saga of the Israelites: By the Rivers of Babylon PBS

 

 

65,157.  If Asherah was believed to be the wife of God, when did this change and why?   (Bible & Asherah)  Bible Secrets Revealed III: The Forbidden Scriptures
