No ambiguity. It's well known that Yahweh is one of the old Hebrew pantheon (the god of war, I understand) from back when their religion was polytheistic. Consequently, we can extrapolate that the collection of Old Testament stories are most likely from that old oral tradition, re-told to fit the cultural changes of the time and probably also the political & social ambitions of the ruling bodies.
