Accepted or discredited?

[edit]

This article alternates in tone between stating Genesius's theory as fact and hinting that it's been discredited. I take it that the question remains open and different editors have inserted their own opinions, but the article should be edited to reflect this.192.197.54.35 (talk) 21:36, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not discredited; nevertheless, ambivalent. That elohim *may* mean "great god"; then again, it may also once have been a literal plural, considering the contentious role of Asherah in contemporaneous Canaanite religion.
