This informative presentation encapsulates several dimensions of the Asherah-as-YHWH's-wife controversy.
A Doctor of Theology and a pastor, Andrew Stehlik discusses archaeology, biblical religion, Asherah
in Ugarit's religious texts, Khirbet el-Qom, Kuntillet Ajrud, Asherah
iconography, Asherah in the Bible, Asherah as Lady Wisdom and biblical

Through his analysis of this historical data,
Stehlik describes the evolution of Asherah and YHWH as a divine couple
prior to the rise of monotheism.
