Daniel Sarlo clearly understands the necessary task of reassessing orthodoxies that creep into the study of ancient texts. He also takes into account contextual understandings of what are currently termed natural phenomena. This combination attests to the utility of his work. The field of ancient West Asian religions has long suffered under schools of interpretation that gloss over what close reading reveals. Sarlo here demonstrates the many benefits of turning over rocks and describing what lies beneath., "Daniel Sarlo clearly understands the necessary task of reassessing orthodoxies that creep into the study of ancient texts.

Wiggins, author of A Reassessment of Asherah and Weathering the Psalms "The Solar Nature of Yahweh is a monograph that unveils the erudition of its author, Daniel Sarlo, and the audacity of his analysis. It successfully achieves three important goals. First, it challenges the common view that YHWH was originally a storm god. Second, it rehabilitates the ancient theory of the solar origin of YHWH, strengthening it with new observations. Third, it identifies YHWH as a great god from the very beginning of his cult. These accomplishments are welcome. They will undoubtedly contribute to modify our current representation of early Israel and its religion." --Nissim Amzallag, Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Beer Sheva "Based on a shortened version of the author's doctoral thesis at the University of Toronto, this bold monograph argues that Yahweh was not originally a storm deity, as is widely held, but a solar deity. Previously it has often been thought that he was 'solarized', but the first two chapters point out the weaknesses in these suppositions, with particular attention to Pss. 18.8-16 and 29.1-10... This is a learned but eminently accessible study which makes many strong points. There is a danger that the arguments against the usual storm god theory work on the 'divide and rule' principle without considering the possible strength of cumulative evidence within single passages. Equally, there are some points where S.'s own preference can be challenged, as he acknowledges. Nevertheless, he makes a strong case that will need to be considered carefully by those who have previously favoured a different opinion." -- The Society For Old Testament Studies, The Solar Nature of Yahweh is a monograph that unveils the erudition of its author, Daniel Sarlo, and the audacity of his analysis.

Synopsis
In The Solar Nature of Yahweh: Reconsidering the Identity of the Ancient Israelite Deity , the original nature of the chief god of the Hebrew Bible, Yahweh, is reexamined. Daniel Sarlo challenges the current consensus 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, but rather a significant god from the very beginning, or at least before the inception of the United Monarchy., In this book, the original nature of the ancient Israelite god, Yahweh, is reconsidered.

    The seller was very responsive and answered me on a timely matter. The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

    Leaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration

    The basket is perfectly what I ordered and as listed. It came in the factory packaging and was perfect upon delivery. Thank you postal service lol. The delivery took way longer than listed though, it was listed to come in a week from purchase, but took a whole month. I had some concerns at first, but communication with the company was top notch and they were very professional and answered most of my questions satisfyingly. Just prepare for a longer wait than listed, but I got what I bought lol.
