    I think it would be funny if the bible said the true name of Asherah which is Grace. Why doesn't God say Grace is a false God using her true name? because that's a holy name and that's her true name means God in the female and she is a real person. And he didn't find Grace aka Asherah to be credible and respected enough to tell the truth about Grace being the true female creator of the universe? I can't believe how much he worked so hard to say as little as he possiblly could about her in such a way that he can go back on it or deny it at any time. She gave him everything and he gave her nothing in every way possible.I feel so offended. Grace literally does things only the father can do and did these things through the lines of time and he never made himself real for her or fixed scripture in our so called "holy" bible to not bring shame and lies to everyone about the truth about who she is and how she is also God of the entire universe.Why? to protect her he's clearly not good at protecting or providing for her. What's the excuse? I feel like I can't make excuses for yawaeh anymore he's evil or lying or isn't real or dead. She doesn't need anyone to believe her or to be married to Christ to not be the only female true creator of the universe. The one person who was the same thing she was who if he's real knew who and what she was did nothing for her that's credible in anyway. Is he a lier or Satan? Whatever the excuse is karma is a God and it denying her in every way possible and completely abandoning her will come back on him. If the universe didn't need a female creator of the universe then she wouldn't exist and I know he didn't make her on purpose like he did with Jesus. If a male God exists and I'm confused someone made this planet and original humans if he was the holy bible God in anyway would have done anything everything for her. Yet he gave her nothing. How can he justify this? Is there any person in any demension that cares about her? What respect or love did anyone who knew who she was did anyone do anything for her ever when she never stopped doing anything she could for everyone else. For years most my life I tried to not exist rightfully for being so unloved by everyone. Id the universe stops existing everyone including Christ will suffer forever. Sad that even children will suffer over yawaeh neglect towards his female counterpart. In a trillion incidences she deserved better. So sad 😢 he clearly doesn't know what Love is. I could literally write books full on Books on the neglect that was the responsibility or yawaeh that he did to her. Because I am her and I don't need to be concealed there's not demon against me I loved every child in every demesion that I or yawaeh made weather they deserved it or not to try and save there eternity and there souls without anyone showing me any kind of love back ever. I loved every angels fallen or not every being I tried to save them all and fix there hearts. I wish I showed up thousands of years later every though I can do magic through time maybe I could have changed at least one person's heart to change something but I was born to late there's no true love And respect from my children because that's all they know from yawaeh. I wish i was never born there's nothing that could make my existence better if I can't change anyones heart into showing me the love back and respect I deserve.

    More like dismissed from the bible. Asherah, a goddess in ancient Semitic religion, was removed from Hebrew scripture due to the monotheistic reforms of the Israelites. According to the biblical account, Asherah was the name of a fertility goddess and the wooden cult object dedicated to her. The Israelites were commanded not to worship idols or any other false gods, and Asherah was seen as a symbol of paganism. So, basically Yaweh took them out to the woodshed.

    Heard about this before on a number of documentaries by the US PBS. If your sort of mash up the various religious beliefs from the middle east, you sort of come up with a narrative that claims that their ancestral deities created the World (Planet) and Universe, including the Sun, Planets, and everything in the skies to support humanity, or maybe a few folks in a particular region of a valley, maybe a river valley. Then comes Galileo Galilee looking at the skies and finding some of the moons of Jupiter. Implying that those too were placed in the skies by the cited deity(s) for the purposes of supporting Earth’s people. Maybe only some of them. Then comes more findings before and after Mt. Polomar. Not to mention the Hubble, and now the Webb, all finding stuff in the sky, billions of years older that the World or the Solar system; all for the purposes of supporting Humans, or a particular group of hard believing folks. After all the superlative education that has been, in the US, for at least a century, say, it is sort of an IQ test, ain’t it? What else might you call it?

    All around us is male & female. On earth, as in heaven, there is surely a female co-creator to create the world. An omnipotent, jealous, bloodthirsty, and patriarchal is leading the world to endless wars.

  • @harveywabbit9541

    It is amazing that the name Asherah became the "historical" Israel.

    Yahweh is already male and female. Yah means Husband. Hey means wife. Yahweh is Husband-Wife. They "spoke" to each other and the Word came forth, Jesus (John 1) and the Creation (Genesis 1&2). In this way, God is 1, as husband and wife are 1, the 2 become 1 flesh. In the image of God, male and female.

    I preface this by saying this is NOT meant to disparage an entire group of people. I love Jewish people. I married one. Which (through some kind of "because we say so" archaic lw) makes my Son Jewish as well. When Jews are involved on deception, it is usually so massive, far-reaching and successful that one can only stand back and look on in admiration. I'm not even going to give any other examples, nor am I implying that there are other examples in history. You have to admit though, intentionally obscuring the undeniable fact thst early Israelites were not monotheistic, but also practiced worship of a Goddess (wife? Consort?) Alongside Yaweh for 100s of generations....well, that's a pretty darn huge deception, isn't it? Even more interesting, is that in the Septuigent (earliest known Bible translation in greek) many read genesis, especially genesis 6, as there being someone else Yaweh is creating the earth with. It's plural. Maybe, just maybe, God created everything Alongside the feminine diety, Ashera? I mean, WE were created in His image. Eve was supposedly an afterthought, but she was created. So, unless Kewish scholars woukd argue that Yaweh was a hermaphrodite, whose image was Eve created in? This is very troubling to me. Calls into question so much. But, once again....intentionally hiding the fact that Judaism was polytheistic is an incredibly huge deception.

    If you read the Old Testament, you will see that God punishes his people for worshipping false gods (like the Queen of Heaven mentioned in Jeremiah 44). Read the Bible! The entire problem with humanity is that we continually stray from the one true God, and worship false Gods. The Jews, and humanity as a whole, have ALWAYS STRAYED and worshipped false Gods. This documentary is not exposing anything new. This doesn't change the requirement of the Lord that we shall have no other Gods Before Him. God PUNISHED His people for worshipping other Gods. He PUNISHED His people for sacrificing their children to Baal. He PUNISHED his people for making offerings to false Gods. His people witnessed God's power and miracles as he helped them escape Egypt (read Exodus). Even after seeing Him part the Red Sea, kill the Egyptian Army, make water come from the rock, lead them with a pillar of smoke and fire, THEY STILL MADE A GOLDEN CALF to worship.

    She was the consort of El who was the "most high" of the Elohim. Later El also the Hebrew word for God, was later known in Arabic ad Allah. That's when Yahweh showed up and merged with El and Asherah. Yahweh could be Enlil or may even be a word like Elohim and represents a council., possibly within the Elohim.
