The True ORIGINS of Genesis Creation Will BLOW Your Mind

The True ORIGINS of Genesis Creation Will BLOW Your Mind Our second channel @mythvisionTV We explore the fascinating connections between the creation myth in Genesis 1 and the Enuma Elish, an ancient Babylonian epic. Discover how Marduk’s triumph over Tiamat and the subsequent creation of the cosmos resonate in the biblical narrative. But that’s not all! We delve into the intriguing contrasts between Genesis 1 and Genesis 2, focusing on the different orders of creation. This discrepancy has led scholars to propose multiple authors, with Genesis 2 potentially predating Genesis 1. We’ll also showcase the presence of Akkadian cognates in Genesis, revealing possible literary dependence and shedding light on the fascinating interplay of ancient texts. The mythical Garden of Eden in Genesis holds a special place in our discussion. Join us as we explore its origins in ancient Mesopotamia and uncover the potential sources that influenced the biblical scribe. We’ll unravel the connections between the creation of humankind in Genesis and its older Mesopotamian counterparts, shedding light on the mythical figure of Adam. And of course, we can’t miss the intriguing tale of Eve’s creation from Adam’s rib. We’ll trace this motif back to the older Sumerian myths and discover the echoes that resonate between these ancient narratives. To wrap up our exploration, we’ll tackle the theme of lost immortality. Drawing from the renowned Epic of Gilgamesh and the myth of Adappa & the South Wind, we’ll unveil the significant role these myths play in the biblical creation stories.
