When I was a kid, one of my parents’ friends had a fun idea she shared with us. She posed the thought that maybe all the different religions were real and the world was just a game of chess they were playing with us as pieces.
YHVH was the Canaanite god of war. Different tribes/groups would prefer one god over another. There were even specific deities for some cities/cities which devoted themselves to one god above others.
