    Why would Jacob, regarded as one of the three primal patriarchs of Judaism,  name his son Asher after the very Asherah who had vegetarian adherents, after the very deity whose shrines the orthodox would later tear down?  Asura was originally a name given to deity.  Later it became a word for demon.

   Why would Shem, the son of Noah, name his second son Assur? It is totally inconsistent to be in a lineage supporting carnivorism while you name your children after deities affirming vegetarians.

Asherah: The shrine of a deity overthrown by patriarchs. The Hebrew word Asherah has its origin in Asura, meaning Almighty God, to the Hindus. More correctly, however, asher in Hebrew means happiness, so Asherah originally probably meant the All-happy One or the God or Deity of Joy.

Asura: Originally meant almighty God to the Hindus. This fact should be seen in context of the presentation of God as commanding vegetarianism in the first chapter of Genesis. The overthrow of the Asherah devotees, and the destruction of their shrines, was the overthrow of the original vegetarian faith of Judaism.

   And let us look at the genealogy of Abraham's family:

    Abraham and Sarah have been likened by numerous authors to Brahma and Sarasvati of the Hindus.  Orthodox Jewish statements in the Old Testament stating that Abraham abandoned the Sabean deities of his father Terah are disproved by the very fact that Abraham named his son after Shu, the Egyptian sky god father of Seb or Shiva.  Abraham's son Jok-shan, contains the shan root meaning the destructiveness of Shiva.  The name of his son Me-dan contains the name Dan, taken from the Danu, a Dravidian tribe in India who were devotees to Shiva.  His son Midian was named after an area that was regarded as part of India even by early Church fathers.  His son Ishbak was named after Ish, which is also a name describing both Shiva and Vishnu.

    Abraham's very act of naming his children after Shiva, and after Sabean tribes and areas, contradicted the strict command "Make not mention of other gods, they shall not be heard on your lips." Ex: 23: 13.  In naming his son Shu after the father of Seb, who is Seba or Shiva, Abraham was honoring his Sabean lineage, not abandoning it.  Abraham's son Jokshan named one son Sheba, or Shiva, and another De-dan.

"Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah. And she
bare him Zimran, and Jok-shan, and Me-dan, and Mid-i-an, and Ish-bak and
Shu-ah. And Jokshan begat She-ba and De-dan."  1 Chronicles 1: 32

    Esdras also comments that the beliefs of patriarchs such as Abraham were consistent with the teachings of late prophets, who, like the Sabeans, denounced animal sacrifices.  A number of the late prophets denounced the fact that the Torah had been revised by false scribes or false prophets.

    Orthodox Jewish law forbid Jews even to utter the names of false gods, much less to name their children after them.  For the objective student of the Torah and orthodox Judaism, this is the stuff of comedy, for the names of Sheva, Rama, Ummah, Oseo, Isa, and Asherah or Asher--as anyone even slightly familiar with a Concordance knows--literally pervade the original days of Judaism.  The only explanation is the logical one: originally these were not false gods. They were simply the deities of the Hindu pantheon.  So too, the Sabbath is clearly the day of Saba, or Shiva.  There's really no getting around it, friends:
