Around that time, hordes of horse-and-chariot Indo-Aryans descended from the north and conquered all of the lands that had formerly been controlled by Semites. Greeks into Greece, Hittites into Turkey, Mittani into Syria, Kassites into Babylon, Hyksos into Egypt, etc. The myth about Zeus - who is the Aryan high god that these conquerors brought with them - taking Saturn/Kronos/El's throne is a direct memory of this real historical event.
Aryans were then dominant in these regions until around 1200 BC when Semites regained ascendancy. At that point they "promoted" their former-high-god's (El) son Yahweh to the position of "head of the universal pantheon". In earlier times the Jews worshiped El - as shown in the name IsraEL (instead of IsraYAH). In later times they worshiped Yahweh, and what I described is the reason.
El and Yahweh are both demonic and accepted and demanded child sacrifices, and both of them are referred to extensively in the Old Testament, where they are separate deities.
