Start from the beginning. The text makes it absolutely clear that there "are other gods".

A tablet written in the very early Bronze Age, when Semites were surrounded by (and often participating in) all sorts of alternative cults and pagan pantheons would naturally mention other gods.

It would be weirder if the early biblical texts didn’t mention any other gods.

Considering 3 major world religions claim the text was inspired by their god, the discrepancies make it at least highly suspicious.
