Haughak functions as one of the rival heavenly powers in the lower realms (hada/atmospherea) during the cycle around the time of Moses, Saul, and the early Israelites (roughly corresponding to the late Bronze/early Iron Age in Oahspe's timeline).
The familiar spirits now inspired Saul to change the words of the commandments to the LORD YOUR GOD, as a conciliatory stratagem to please the nations and tribes of people who worshiped Baal, Dagon, Ashtaroth, Haughak, and other Gods and Lords of the lower heavens.

I believe it was Saul who was king, and they were at war.
King Saul, facing an imminent battle with the Philistines and receiving no response from God through usual means, consulting a medium (the Witch of Endor) to summon the spirit of the deceased prophet Samuel for advice.
Samuel's spirit then prophesies Saul's defeat and death.
Saul had expelled the mediums and spiritists from the land.
The Philistines assembled and came and set up camp at Shunem, while Saul gathered all Israel and set up camp at Gilboa.
When Saul saw the Philistine army, he was afraid; terror filled his heart.
Verses 7-11: Saul then said to his attendants, “Find me a woman who is a medium, so I may go and inquire of her.” “There is one in Endor,” they said.
So Saul disguised himself, putting on other clothes, and at night he and two men went to the woman.
“Consult a spirit for me,” he said, “and bring up for me the one I name.” But the woman said to him, “Surely you know what Saul has done.
Why have you set a trap for my life to bring about my death?” Saul swore to her by the Lord, “As surely as the Lord lives, you will not be punished for this.” Then the woman asked, “Whom shall I bring up for you?” “Bring up Samuel,” he said.
Verses 12-14: When the woman saw Samuel, she cried out at the top of her voice and said to Saul, “Why have you deceived me?
You are Saul!” The king said to her, “Don’t be afraid.
Then Saul knew it was Samuel, and he bowed down and prostrated himself with his face to the ground.
Verses 15-19: Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?” “I am in great distress,” Saul said.
Verses 20-25: Immediately Saul fell full length on the ground, filled with fear because of Samuel’s words.
When the woman came to Saul and saw that he was greatly shaken, she said, “Look, your servant has obeyed you.
Then she set it before Saul and his men, and they ate.

So Saul crushed the Amalekites, beginning at Havilah in the direction of Shur, which is to the east of Egypt.
But Saul and the army spared Agag and the best of the sheep and cattle, the fatlings and lambs, and all that was good.
Then Yahweh sent a message to Samuel: "I regret having made Saul king, since he has fallen short of obedience to me and has not carried out my precise instructions." Samuel was appalled and cried out to Yahweh all night long.
In the morning, Samuel set off to find Saul.
When Samuel reached Saul, Saul said, "May you be blessed by Yahweh; I have carried out Yahweh's orders." Samuel replied, "Then what is this bleating of sheep in my ears and the lowing of cattle that I hear?"
Saul said, "They have been brought from Amalek, the people having spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice them to Yahweh your God; the rest we have consigned to the curse of destruction."
Samuel then said to Saul, "Stop!
Saul replied to Samuel, "But I did obey Yahweh's voice.
Saul then said to Samuel, "I have sinned, having broken Yahweh's order and your instructions.
Samuel said to Saul, "I will not come back with you, since you have failed Yahweh's word, and Yahweh has rejected you as king of Israel."
Now note that when Yahweh rejects Saul, he is rejecting Saul because he isn't brutal enough.
Saul has won the war, but he hasn't killed every woman, child, and baby.
In the 397th year Saul was anointed first king.
This king was called Saul… Thus was substituted Lord God (Land God) for Jehovih… A college of prophets was established at Naioth.”
Anointing of Saul as first king: In 1 Samuel 8, the elders demand a king "like all the nations." Samuel warns against it, but God instructs him to grant the request.
Saul is privately anointed by Samuel (1 Samuel 9:27–10:1), then publicly confirmed (1 Samuel 10:17–24).
David flees there for refuge; the Spirit comes upon messengers and Saul himself, causing them to prophesy.
Biblical chronologies vary (e.g., 1 Kings 6:1 gives 480 years from Exodus to Solomon's temple start, including Saul's 40-year reign in Acts 13:21 and judges' periods), but no verse uses 397 years.
No king for centuries, then Saul's anointing: Both cover a long period without a king after the Exodus, ending with Saul as the first monarch (1 Samuel 8–10 matches the 397 years timeline, though exact years differ).
Chronology and specific years: Oahspe provides exact years (e.g., 397 after Exodus for Saul, B.K.
YHWH consents, though with a warning, and Saul becomes the first anointed king.
This king was called Saul, signifying OF THE LORD GOD.
As Israel transitions from a loose confederation of tribes to a centralized kingdom (under Saul, David, and Solomon), Yahweh’s worship consolidates the national identity.
Mount Gilboa is historically significant as the site where King Saul and his son Jonathan died in battle.
This king was called Saul, signifying OF THE LORD GOD.
The familiar spirits now inspired Saul to change the words of the commandments to the LORD YOUR*** GOD, as a conciliatory stratagem to please the nations and tribes of people who worshiped Baal, Dagon, Ashtaroth, Haughak, and other Gods and Lords of the lower heavens.
And about the time the Israelites made Saul their king, darkness came upon the Zarathustrians also.
And the LORD said, 'There is bloodguilt on Saul and on his house, because he put the Gibeonites to death.'"
Shut in a dungeon, he would arise and go forth like Saul of Tarsus; he could see to any distance, and this without a naim; hear equally without a naim; go through the midst of foes, and be seen by none of them.
The people believed they had replaced Yahweh with a human king, Saul, who would pursue policies for the common good.
These were typically local struggles until Israel eventually united under figures like Samuel, Saul, David, and Solomon, establishing a kingdom.
Amalekites: In 1 Samuel 15:2-3, YHWH commands King Saul to completely destroy the Amalekites, including men, women, children, and animals.
Samuel: YHWH speaks directly to the prophet Samuel to guide the Israelites and anoint kings like Saul and David (1 Samuel 3; 1 Samuel 16).
Through Samuel: In 1 Samuel 15:2-3, YHWH commands Saul, through the "The Powerful Listener", to destroy the Amalekites completely.
Command to Saul via Samuel: In 1 Samuel 15, YHWH commands King Saul, through the Samuel, to completely destroy the Amalekites, including men, women, children, infants, and animals.
Samuel’s Role: When Saul fails to fully carry out this command, sparing King Agag and the best of the livestock, Samuel himself executes Agag to complete the divine command (1 Samuel 15:32-33).
Saul: Samuel anoints Saul as the first king of Israel under YHWH's direction (1 Samuel 10).
David: Later, Samuel anoints David as king, which sets in motion a series of events that lead to Saul’s downfall and a period of conflict and civil war (1 Samuel 16:1-13).
There was a temple of this goddess among the Philistines in the time of Saul ( 1 Samuel 31:10 ).
She is repeatedly grouped with Baal, Dagon, and Haughak as one of the false gods whose worship the Israelites were later pressured to accommodate (e.g., when the commandments were altered under Saul).
David served in the court of King Saul and became close friends with Saul's son, Jonathan.
Despite his loyalty, Saul grew jealous of David's popularity and sought to kill him, forcing David to live as a fugitive for a period.
After Saul's death, David was anointed king of Judah and later of all Israel, uniting the tribes.
He is most famous for being the second king of Israel and Judah, succeeding King Saul.
David volunteered to fight Goliath, even though King Saul and others doubted his ability because of his youth and inexperience.
The Battle: David refused the offer of Saul's armor and chose instead to fight with his sling and five smooth stones he picked from a stream.
Israel’s first king, Saul, fought a serpent in his first battle against Nahash (Hebrew “serpent”), king of the Ammonites, and here David faced his own serpent.
David was better than Saul, the tall man who feared the Philistine giant (1 Samuel 17:11).
The medium (Witch) of Endor tells Saul that she saw elohim ascending out of the earth when she summoned the spirit of the Prophet Samuel at Saul's request. The word elohim, in this context, refers to spirits as well as deities.
The longest Eden Conspiracy block on this page is the Saul / David power-grip reading.
For instance, it is when YHWH’s successor King Saul runs a war more mercifully than the way YHWH would have done that YHWH deposes him, afflicting him with a spiritual parasite which ultimately drives the king to insanity and suicide.
Having got rid of Saul, YHWH installs David who does well for a while, right up until II Samuel 24.
The same book narrates a covenant shift when Saul is anointed.
Before Saul, Israel covenants with the Great Spirit E-O-Ih.
This king was called Saul, signifying OF THE LORD GOD.
The familiar spirits now inspired Saul to change the words of the commandments to the LORD YOUR GOD, as a conciliatory stratagem to please the nations and tribes of people who worshiped Baal, Dagon, Ashtaroth, Haughak, and other Gods and Lords of the lower heavens.
Meaning: OAHSPE separates an older E-O-Ih / I AM covenant from a later Lord God regime under Saul.
That sits beside Eden Conspiracy’s Saul power-grip block as another labeled succession reading.
