I mean, kind of.
A dude can suddenly talk to God through a burning bush, and then continues to talk to him face to face in a double layered tent he goes into after anointing himself and whenever he's talking to God a cloud appears at the door? Sounds a lot like Herodotus talking about the Scythians anointing themselves, going into a tent, and burning cannabis inhaling the fumes...
And yet all the fun stuff has since been removed.
Do you have a source for that? I'd be interested.
I've suspected for a while given an 8th century BCE mention of an Assyrian anointing oil of olive oil, myrrh, and cannabis that the original recipe before Josiah's reforms was similar, especially given the find linked above at Tel Arad, but I haven't seen anything about pottery residue in Israelite or Judean sites.
