All interesting stuff, and A+ to bilbical and ancient scholars for effortful interpretation and exposition of such interesting historical religious items, characters and legends.
But viewers, know that a good solid undergraduate and especially graduate and/or professional school education, in STEM, logic, philosophy, natural history, psychology, critical thinking, analytical reading, etc., will arm you with the tools to determine reality.
Such an education gives you the understanding to realize that whatever time spent examining such religions or religious artifacts, whether it be from deep hunter-gatherer times 50,000 years ago, or the Axial Age (the Jewish Bible, the New Testament, the Quran), or the wild West of the USA (Book of Mormon), is just that -- a mental exercise.
There is no evidence of God, Satan, demons, devils, spirits, ghosts, spectres, saints, souls or afterlife.
Still, such man-made religious practices, creeds, items, relics, ancient tomes, etc., are nothing but comic bookery and tomfoolery but may yet have some application to the understanding of what many millions and billions(!) of "the faithful" believe today.
Faith is believing on no evidence.

The humanities are being subsumed by the scientific method as each day passes.
Scientists acccept or reject on evidence, whereas the Abrahamic religionist believes on faith without evidence.
Science: observation, data collection, theory, experiment, empirical reasoning, statistical analysis, conclusion with consensus, confirmation, revisitation, and retesting.
Religion: ancient tomes, dogma, scripture, personal revelation, authority, obedience, ritual, emotion, threat, and FEAR.
Science: what is.
Abrahamic religion: what ought to be.
