The problem with the analysis is that El (H410) and Elohim (H430) have been confused since Babylon (Isaiah 46:9).

Where Isaiah 46:9 uses the same language of 'going back to the former theology' found at the start of Deuteronomy 32:7-9; that El Elyon (God Most High) separated the nations among the Divine Council, and gave the nation of Israel to YHVH.

Eloh (H433) refers to a Divine Being, and El (H410) refers to the Source of reality. The additional 'H' added to the word, means something breathed into existence by the Source (El).

YHVH is a Hebrew translation of the Sanskrit 'Bhagavan Brahma', where 'Havah' and 'Brahma' both come from the root 'breath', and mean 'to be', 'to make manifest' i.e the 'Lord of Creation'.

In many theological structures globally there is the Source of reality, and then the Divine Beings/Avatars/Archangels who've interacted with the reality.
Because after Babylon the Jews tried to create a stricter form of monotheism, they've muddled up the contexts to be henotheistic instead.

We can show in David's Psalms he declares YHVH, 'and' El Elyon in these verses:

2 Samuel 22:14 & Psalms 18:13, Psalms 21:7, Psalms 50:14, Psalms 78:35, Psalms 92:1

We can show in Job he declares a Divine Being (Eloh - H433), 'and' the Almighty:

Job 5:17, Job 6:4, Job 11:7, Job 22:26, Job 27:10, Job 31:2, Job 40:2

The book of Revelation also tries to fix the theology of God Almighty (El Shaddai) as the one on the throne, and then the 24 Elders are Elohim, plus the Lamb as the king of kings, Lord of Lords (25th).

The idea of Divine Beings (Elohim) having a form, and man being made in the image of Divine Beings, doesn't defile the 2nd commandment. The Source of reality is beyond form, and exists as panentheism, whereas the Divine Council are pantheistic.
