	Denver Journal - 5:0102 - Yahweh and the Gods and Goddesses of Canaan
		With a heavy emphasis on the written sources and especially the Ugaritic texts, Day presents a considered and well reasoned series of arguments that address some of the major issues in the interpretation of the texts and provide a coherent and reasonable understanding of these deities and their associations with other figures.
		The last section of deities to be examined is that of the underworld figures of Mot, Resheph, Molech, and Rephaim.
		Mot and Resheph, who both appear in the Bible as common nouns, have various levels of personification in biblical texts, from absence to echoes of myth themes to more apparent manifestations of these figures.

	Simon Keatings, Chapter 2

		He couldn't leave fast enough, not knowing how the Dreamspeakers would feel about what had happened in the sweat lodge, not knowing where Resheph was or what it was learning about the chantry here in the hills.
		He saw the shadow of a gun; Resheph, he felt certain, saw the shadow as well, whether through Simon's eyes or the putrefacted orbs of its decaying form he could not tell.

		Probably one of the best known of the Canaanite deities, she was famous for her youthful vigour and ferocity in battle; in that respect she was adopted as a special favourite by the Egyptian king Ramses II (reigned 1279-13 BC).
		Although Anath was often associated with the god Resheph in ritual texts, she was primarily known for her role in the myth of Baal's death and resurrection, in which she mourned and searched for him and finally helped to retrieve him from the netherworld.
		Egyptian representations of Anath show a nude goddess, often standing on a lion and holding flowers.
