as those who accepted the cult of Yahweh, a demi-urge in the pantheon led by El or Elohim, THE significant deity of the region for a very long time. Abraham was a follower of El, it is thought in fact. The Israeli focus against the Canaanites in the Old Testament is literature, not history and a means for the Hebrews to set themselves apart as important at a time they were not.
