Weird I was just going to post a comment about that.
Kirsch shows that the earliest impulses toward monotheism can be found in Egypt with pharaoh Akhenaton's attempt to move the nation to the worship of one god. This Egyptian likely influenced Moses, according to Kirsch, and much of the history of early Israel is the history of the worship of one god emerging out of the worship of many gods.
.
Its accepted that some Canaanites were enslaved and brought to Egypt to help in the building of the
Pyramids, is it too assuming and probable that this focus onto one god like Pharaoh, influenced Moses
to create a Monotheistic God with a specific temple to which the inhabitants would use to worship one
particular and singular god. ?
