Thus, according to the reference work Manners and Customs in the Bible, “sexual activity at local shrines was designed to promote the fertility of the land by encouraging the storm god Baal and his consort Asherah to engage in divine intercourse, causing abundant harvests and herds. ”
Maka, menurut referensi Manners and Customs in the Bible, ” kegiatan seksual di kuil di daerah itu bertujuan meningkatkan kesuburan tanah dengan merangsang dewa badai Baal dan pasangannya dewi Asyera untuk berhubungan seks, agar panenan dan ternak berlimpah ”.
