And an asshole. His own book shows how assholish he is to his own people.
The biblical God character was simply the series of men and priests who ruled the various dominate Middle Eastern empires in ancient times. Sometimes the God was the Egyptian pharaoh. Other times it was the Hittite, Babylonian, Assyrian, Chaldean, or Persian emperor. The head priests put the spin on the fairy tale.
The biblical God character bit the dust for good with the collapse of the Babylonian empire around 530 BC and the death of its emperor. He's not coming back. They tried to resurrect him with the Greeks but it didn't work out.
