Final answer:
The ancient Hebrews believed in a God who was all-knowing, good, eternal, all-powerful, and involved in human affairs. The attribute that does not describe the Hebrew God is indifference to human beings. The correct answer is option c).
Step-by-step explanation:
The ancient Hebrews believed that God had certain characteristics that set Him apart from the deities of other ancient religions. Among these characteristics, God was seen as all-knowing and good, eternal and all-powerful, and above and apart from the natural world. Nonetheless, the ancient Hebrews did not view their God as indifferent to human affairs; rather, He was deeply invested in the actions and lives of His chosen people. In various stories within the Torah, God judged individuals, from commoners to kings like David and Solomon, ensuring no one could escape divine judgment. This is markedly different from other ancient religions where gods could be capricious or cruel. Over time, influenced by the loss of territories and the rise of monotheism, views on the attributes of God evolved, leading to the concept of a more omnipotent and omnipresent deity.
The correct answer to the question "The ancient Hebrews believed that God was all of the following, except" is c) indifferent to human beings. The ancient Hebrews did not see their God as indifferent; instead, He was engaged and cared about human actions and morality.
