God had a wife, known as Ashera the Queen of heaven, but she was removed from the bible.
The Queen of Heaven was a powerful Goddess, but she became hated by God who declared that
those who worshipped her would be burned and destroyed by his anger and fury.
Who was Ashera, Queen of Heaven and the wife of god?
Why did god come to hate her and why was she removed from the bible?
This is absolutely insane and shows just how far this world has gone to twist our society
into a patriarchy.
Ashera was powerful, matriarchal goddess who represented nature and femininity.
She was worshipped under every green tree and in the temple and forest groves her image
was carved from wood.
However, Ashera Queen of Heaven and the matriarchal figure of femininity would soon draw the wrath
of her husband: the patriarchal and savage Yahweh.
Everything you’ve been told about God and the bible has been a lie.
Christianity and the Abrahamic religions in general are monotheistic religions meaning
there’s only one God, that God being Yahweh.
However, when early scripture was being written the Israelite religion was polytheistic—they
believed in many gods.
When we look at the history of the religions that influenced these scriptures, specifically
the Canaanite religion, we discover that Yahweh was just one of many gods, including El Elyon
“The most high God” and Ashera the Queen of Heaven.
When what would become the first book of the bible, Genesis, was written, the God referred
to wasn’t originally Yahweh.
In fact, it wasn’t just one God but multiple gods.
Two of them being El Elyon the most high god and Asherah the Queen of heaven.
Now at this point it’s actually El Elyon and Ashera that are husband and wife.
If you open a bible right now to Genesis 1:26 and 27 you’ll see that it says “Then God
said, “Let us make humanity in our image to resemble us”… male and female God created
them.”
You’ll notice two striking details.
First, God says to make humanity in our image to resemble us.
This makes no sense if there’s only one god and the trinity doesn’t explain this
since the trinity wasn’t officially established until the Council of Nicea hundreds of years
later.
Second, after saying humanity will be created to “resemble us” he creates them male
and female.
This makes no sense according to what would become the orthodox narrative but makes perfect
sense when you realize this book was written when multiple gods were worshipped including
Ashera the mother goddess.
Here’s where things start to get insane.
At this time El Elyon was worshipped along with other gods including his wife Ashera
the Queen of Heaven.
However, beginning in Exodus El Elyon is replaced by Yahweh, who would become the monotheistic
god of Christianity and Abrahamism in general.
Yahweh was a savage war god and there are many verses in the bible that state this outright.
He’s a god of destruction and retribution.
The Abrahamic religions claim he’s a god of peace and love but if you read the bible,
you’ll see he causes the deaths of all the first-born children in Egypt, accepts a burnt
virgin sacrifice, and destroys countless innocent men, women, and children.
Does that sound like a god of peace and love to you?
When we look at the Hebrew texts we can see how the religions evolved.
Originally, the scriptures describe a religion of many gods, but as the scriptures go on
and the religion evolves more emphasis begins to be placed on Yahweh and many people start
worshipping Ashera as the wife of Yahweh instead of El Elyon and Yahweh and Asherah are invoked
together for protection.
But even this doesn’t last because soon Yahweh declares himself the one true god turning
on all the other gods including his wife Ashera.
Ultimately, the existence of other gods is outright denied and we can see that scriptures
began in a polytheistic way and evolved to convince believers that Yahweh was the most
powerful of the gods, then eventually phased out the other gods altogether and became monotheistic.
I’ve done an entire video describing this but let’s look at how Ashera, the Queen
of Heaven was erased from the bible.
Yahweh is an extreme patriarchal figure and no doubt Ashera, being a powerful matriarchal
figure was a particular threat.
Multiple books in the bible, particularly Hosea, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel, blame goddess
religions for making Yahweh jealous and this jealously being the reason he allowed the
destruction of Israel.
Throughout the bible attempts are made to portray goddess religions in a negative light
by associating them with prostitution (not that there’s anything negative about that)
but in actuality its highly likely that sexual and fertility rites were held in honor centering
around women of power and influence.
In fact, the Hebrew word gadishtu is typically translated as temple prostitutes but it literally
means “priestess.”
But the suppression of goddess religions and Ashera gets worse.
The name ashera appears forty times in the Hebrew bible but not at all in the English
translation, the King James bible.
Instead, her name was translated as groves of trees meaning the average English reader
of the bible wouldn’t have read her name for more than 400 years.
All that made it in were a handful of references to a nameless “queen of heaven” in verses
where Yahweh is ordering the destruction of her shrines, cursing and obliterating those
who worship her, and causing the desolation of the people and lands associated with her.
Ashera, the Queen of Heaven was a powerful archetype of feminine empowerment.
She was the mother goddess, a comforter and protector, associated with trees, groves,
and forests and a symbol of honored sexuality.
Unfortunately, it became “God the Father’s” mission to destroy his wife the mother goddess.
Ashera wasn’t accidently lost to history.
She was deliberately destroyed by patriarchal monotheists through the tearing down of her
temples, destruction of her images, and the misrepresentation of her rites.
Her stories were rewritten and ultimately her name was forgotten.
All this has influenced our culture and is it any wonder why our world is in the imbalanced
patriarchal state that it is today?
It’s time for the resurgence of the divine feminine and the kindling of the fires of
retribution for the mother goddess.
Let’s step out of the dark ages of a sexist society and into the light of rational, equal
opportunity for all.
