If we could go back in time to the Old Testament days, the most striking difference in the form of worship would be the sacrifice of animals that accompanied worship.
In pre-Exilic days, we might also see some worshipping the sun, or women weeping for the shepherd-god Tammuz (Ezekiel 8:14-16). In earlier days we could see, in the Jerusalem Temple, a representation of the goddess Asherah, and the serpent-god, Nehushtan, but these were removed by King Josiah, who also removed the horses and the chariot of the sun god.
