So-called proto-Semitic was spoken and written by the Hebrews and Canaanites following the confusion of language at the Tower of Babel, the Canaanites actually having adopted Hebrew language and writing “proto-Semitic script,” yet the Canaanites rather than calling the Creator Elohim (a plural word allowing for Father, Son, and Spirit) as the Bible to that point was recorded instead used the singular word El for a deity not the Creator, for instance El-Hammon, having made a god out of Noah’s son Ham.
