It is believed that YHWH originated as a storm god among the Midianites of north-west Arabia. Keel and Uehlinger (Gods, Goddesses and Images of God in Ancient Israel) describe Yahweh as initially the Hebrew storm God, but apparently later as a solar God. They say that Yahweh and Baal were nearly indistinguishable in eighth-century Israel, fulfilling the same functions and roles and being conceived of using the same categories. In fact, over the centuries, there seems to have been a great deal of syncretism among the Hebrew gods El, Baal and Yahweh.
The Deuteronomistic reforms of the seventh century BCE, under King Josiah, resulted in an almost complete rewrite of Judah's religious history, as well as that of the former kingdom of Israel. Regardless of private worship, the official religion of Judah was to be monotheistic, based on Yahweh alone. This meant that Baal and Asherah were to be both downplayed and disparaged in the new Hebrew scriptures. Since El and Yahweh had come to be regarded as one and the same God, no such treatment of El would be needed.
The Deuteronomistic reforms were only partly successful, with polytheism continuing up until the Babylonian Exile and possibly beyond, but Yahweh would eventually become the sole deity of Judaism.

Answer 1Abraham shaped the Hebrew history by being told by God himself, or believed that He did tell him, to leave his own home, and settle into Canaan where his descendants-the Hebrews-- finally settled also, but later, some of the Hebrews moved to Egypt, (they moved to other parts of the world later). However, with the growth of the Hebrews, the pharaoh of Egypt, was worried the Hebrews soon might take over, and to stop that from happening, he made the Hebrews slaves. A man named Moses appeared among the Hebrews in Egypt. God told Moses to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt. Moses then went to the pharaoh and demanded that the Hebrews should be free. The pharaoh refused. Soon afterward a series of plagues (disasters) struck Egypt and the pharaoh then agreed to let the Hebrews free.Christian answer:They both spread the word about God and Jesus.Jewish answer:Abraham founded Judaism.Moses brought the Israelites out of Egypt and received the Torah from God.
