So F. H. Woods, The Hope of Israel, Edinburgh, 1896, p. 205, where he speaks of the religion of the Prophets and Psalmists, as “giving, on the whole, by far the most perfect and, as compared with other ancient literature, practically a unique example of monotheism.” Yet as Winwood Reade points out, Solomon must have thought there were other gods than Yahweh, because he worshipped other gods; op. cit. supra, p. 201.
