Marsha Scott's comment on 2013-01-20 08:27:12:

I think that the original story could have a Roman-Greek influence since Zeus was placed in the Synagogue and Yehudah at one time was made to worship Zeus. Solar worship plays prominent in their worship probably from a Zoroastrian influence where science and astronomy were intertwined in religious beliefs.
