A leading deity of the Canaanite pantheon was Asherah, wife/sister of El and goddess of fertility. She was commonly worshiped at shrines in or near groves of evergreen trees, or, failing that, at places marked by wooden poles (Hebrew אֲשֵׁרִים [ asherim ], plural).

Perhaps this is because the Sabbath day was the sign of the Mosaic covenant ( Exod 31:13-17 ) just as the rainbow was the sign of the Noahic covenant ( Gen 9:12, 13, 17 ) and circumcision was the sign of the Abrahamic covenant ( Gen 17:11 ).
