* Putting God on Trial-The Biblical Book of Job-A Biblical reworking of the combat motif between Yam, Anat and Baal.

Of all the gods, despite being the champion of El, Yam holds special hostility against Baal Hadad, son of Dagon.

) In Ugaritic texts, Yam's special enemy Hadad is also known as the " king of heaven " and the " first born son " of El, whom ancient Greeks identified with their god Cronus, just as Baal was identified with Zeus, Yam with Poseidon and Mot with Hades.

" Yam, Judge Nahar " also has similarities with Mesopotamian Tiamat and Abzu and the battle between Yam and Baal ( the Storm God ) resembles the battle in Hurrian and Hittite mythology between the sky God Teshub ( or Tarhunt ) with the serpent Illuyanka.

In this case the struggle between Yam / Yaw and Baal, prefigures that mentioned between the priests of Baal and the priests of Yahweh, led by Elijah, at Mount Carmel in 1 Kings 18.
