Don’t think so. The text doesn’t read that way. Apparently the Hebrew is even clearer. Lord is of course used in place of YHWH. And it doesn’t even use the generic El for the high god.

Here is the actual quote

When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, When He separated the sons of man, He set the boundaries of the peoples According to the number of the sons of Israel.9 “For the Lord"s portion is His people; Jacob is the allotment of His inheritance.

I don’t know how to edit a post in Bluesky. Deuteronomy 32:8-9.

Here is one of the most interesting biblical insights I’ve run across years: chapter 32, verses, eight and nine, it states that the high God gave to the Lord, that is the God of Israel, inheritance of people of Israel. Wait what? A God above our God.
