That's the subject of much debate among archeologists and historical anthropologists. The stories originally written in Hebrew suggest a polytheistic religion with a god of the mountain, a god of the sky and so forth. The Jews became monotheists with the pact between Moses and Yaweh, and the creation of the Ten Commandments.
