Modern Judaism is the most strongly monotheistic of all religions - the opposite of polytheism. However, before the Babylonian Exile, and particularly before the seventh-century-BCE deuteronomistic reforms of King Josiah, Hebrews did follow many gods, although their most important God was the God now worshipped by Jews and Christians.
Even after the Return from the Babylonian Exile, evidence in the Bible suggests that remnants of polytheistic beliefs still existed. And the post-Exilic emergence of the spirit/goddess, Wisdom, in Jewish belief meant that Judaism was not yet truly monotheistic. Wisdom continued to be venerated until around the end of the first century CE, and was even mentioned in the gospels.

Was the tribe of Benjamin pagans?
The Benjamites were said to be a tribe of the Hebrew people, and the Hebrews were in fact polytheistic prior to the Deuteronomistic reforms of King Josiah. However, the designation 'pagan' is ambiguous: for some it refers only to the religion of the early Roman Empire, while for others it refers to all polytheistic beliefs. Although the Hebrews, and therefore the Benjaminites, were polytheistic it is not usual to refer to them as pagans.
