Nope, she's not making the connection as specified in the OP, regardless of the credibility of what she's saying here.

The OP is referring to the horns on the altar as specified in Exodus and elsewhere in the Bible, and then they're pondering the connection from that to bulls of ANE religions. Not horns in general, but the horns that were on those altars.

Actually, OP, have you stumbled upon this one already?

Haven't fully read it, just skimmed. Give it a read and see what you get.

Ah! This looks like a great resource! Thanks for the link! I’m reading it now.
