I'll look up the verses later but there are a number of OT verses that refute the idea that Yahweh was omnipotent.
- Yahweh created the universe in six days. Why not instantly?
- Yahweh needed to rest on the seventh. Later, he confided in Moses that he was "refreshed" from his rest on the seventh, indicating exhaustion.
- Yahweh has the strength of a unicorn.
- Yahweh could not drive out an army that had iron chariots.
- Yahweh "tried" to kill Moses and obviously failed.
