Daniel McClellan on Monotheism and Other Gods in the Hebrew Bible

I have posted a number of times in the past about examples of henotheism in the Old Testament/Hebrew Bible.  HERE is a post by Daniel McClellan in which he goes into a significant amount of detail on the topic.  I am one who was trained in the manner of Wiggins who he cites in the post.  In my reading, statements in Deutero-Isaiah have been taken as monotheistic; however, McClellan makes a good case for pushing the development of monotheism back a bit further and not taking statements in Deutero-Isaiah as strictly monotheistic.  Check out his post and see what you think.
