One question, people say that (Psalm 29) was originally a Canaanite psalm for their storm god Baal-Hadad and there seems to be verses in (Psalm 29) which supports this. Especially with verse 3 which says:
"The Voice of Hashem is upon the waters, THE G-D OF GLORY THUNDERS; Hashem is over the vast waters."
Baal-Hadad was the son of the chief god El and he was also a weather, rain, storm and thunder god whose cult originated in Mesopotamia (originally called "Ishkur" in Sumer and "Haddad" in Akkad). So was this chapter adopted from the Canaanites but altered so that it could be a psalm for Hashem instead of Hadad? I've been confronted by this point brought up by atheists, and I have no idea how to answer.
