I've been focusing a lot of my study lately on the topic of the deity of Christ. Many who deny the deity of Christ argue that the concept of a God who is complex in His unity would have been unfathomable for monotheistic Jews and is a completely foreign concept to the OT.

This is demonstrably false. Jewish rabbinic scholar Alan Segal's book "The Two Powers in Heaven" is a fascinating work focusing on the history of the "two powers" concept in Judaism. He confirms that prior t...o the 2nd century the Jews essentially had a Godhead teaching referenced as the "two powers."

They derived this teaching from OT passages such as Genesis 19:24:

"YHWH rained upon Sodom and Gomorrah sulfurous fire from YHWH out of heaven."

Here you have YHWH raining down fire FROM YHWH. Looks like 2 YHWHs. But they knew that YHWH is one (Deuteronomy 6:4).

The Jews didn't exclude the idea of YHWH as a being who is complex in His unity until they were in the position of opposing Christianity.

What makes Segal's work so compelling is that, in his capacity as a modern day Jew, he considered the concept completely heretical. Yet in his capacity as an historian, he is compelled to accurately document that Judaism's complete resistance to a Godhead and complex unity only came late and in response to Christianity.
