The word “Henotheism” was coined about 1860 by Max Muller from the Greek hen (one) + theos (god) to denote the religion of people who worshiped only one god but did not deny the fact that other people worshiped other gods. For example: “Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to inquire of Ba’al-ze’bub, the god of Ekron?” [2 Kings 1:3]
