Daniel 11:37 actually says: "He shall pay no attention to the gods [’ĕ·lō·hê, plural] of his fathers. . ." To me this suggests a pagan background.
Unto thee it was shewed,
that thou mightest know that the LORD He is God;
there is none else beside Him.
in the Hebrew 'God' there is Elohim, plural, but 'LORD' and 'Him' are singular. that thou mightest know that the LORD He is God;
there is none else beside Him.
iirc Hebrew sometimes uses plurality to indicate greatness, not necessarily quality. like the 'royal we' in English
