speaking of, the Hebrew EL, the very same god who, under the name Elohim/Yahweh, is believed to have created the world, was said to have been equipped with a long penis.
What was this sacred virile member attached to god?
Among the Egyptians, the phallus of Ra (Ra is also to be identified with Saturn) was highly honored.
This is indicated in the praises glorifying the god.
As it was written: "Who is this?" And the answer is given: "It is Osiris.'' (Osiris is also a personification of Saturn) the passage continues with: "Others, however, say that his name is Ra, and that the god who dwelleth in Amentet is the phallus of Ra, wherewith he had union with himself."
The most popular ithyphallic god of Egypt was Min. Unfortunately, despite attempts to identify this deity as a personification of Saturn and, later, as a personification of Mars, not enough is known about this deity to reach a definite conclusion concerning his genesis.
Shu, this god was inter alia lauded as "Lord of the Phallus. "
In the Pyramid Texts, he is actually equated with the male organ of Atum. (Saturn as the Night Sun)
What is even more revealing, however, is the fact that, in some depictions, the heaven sustaining Shu is replaced with the phallus of Geb.
It is then evident that the phallus of the deity was itself believed to have acted as the support of heaven much in the same manner that the single leg of the god did.
As Diodorus reported, it was not only the Egyptians who consecrated "that member" in their initiatory rites, but quite a few other nations.
Dionysus cult (another personification of Saturn) in Greece is evidenced by temples, sculptures of phalli and descriptions of processions carrying huge phalli as late as the second century BC. Brimming with virility, he was the god most favored by women.
