In The Solar Nature of Yahweh: Reconsidering the Identity of the Ancient Israelite Deity, the original nature of the ancient Israelite god, Yahweh, is reconsidered. Daniel Sarlo challenges the current belief that Yahweh was initially a storm god by examining the relevant biblical texts and comparing them with Ancient Near Eastern texts, ultimately arguing that Yahweh was a solar deity. The implication of this research is that Yahweh was not a minor god who gradually accumulated characteristics to become the head of the ancient Israelite pantheon; rather, he was a significant god from the beginning, or at least before the inception of the United Monarchy.
