When the two primeval waters, the salt and fresh water, entered into marriage, and brought into being the first of the gods, thus the Babylonian Creation Epic begins its strange and incredible tale with the words ‘ENUMA ELISH’ meaning ‘WHEN THE HEAVENS ABOVE…’ Plunge into a mystic realm of dragons ranging the depths of the primordial sea, when god declared war on god, and the winner emerged as the powerful ruler of all men and matter. With formidable powers the gods set into motion the universe, and made mankind to perform their work upon the earth, to shape the natural world and raise their glorious temples. Hear the song of Marduk the Champion, the mighty slayer of the creature Tiamat, and a tale of how one man came to survive the Great Flood, brought by the gods to wipe out humankind forever, in two tales which underlie those which achieved such greatness and magnificence in the pages of the Book of Genesis.

The True Biblical Orgins
Very interesting material brought in very simple terminology. Gives a clearer understanding of our orgins and the bibles use of this same historyThe sentences were often repeated, not sure if this was simply the way it was actually interpreted from the scrolls, or a typo? At any case...fascinating read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oldest Creation Myth Revealed!

Finally, an excellent translation of the Enuma Elish, the ancient Sumerian creation myth which is the precursor to all known creation stories. Reportedly 1800 years before Genesis was written. Many parallels to the Biblical account. Truth-seekers will be very pleased with this edition.

Gives us a glimpse ✨️ into ancient past civilization regarding our earth 🌎 amd solar system. To truly understand material like this. One must read other related books by research authors to put the puzzle together and get closest to the truth regarding our ancient past and where we are headed as a Human civilization.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interessante
Reviewed in Brazil on February 19, 2023

O livro tem 2 partes: a cosmogenesis babilônica e a história do dilúvio.
Tem pouco paratexto e fiquei sem saber qual a versão dos poemas que foram traduzidos e um pouco confusa quanto ao que era tradução do original e o que era inclusão do autor nas lacunas.
No mais é bastante interessante. Há algumas mudanças quanto aos Deuses, funções e ações entre as versões. Muita repetição (que foi comum na leitura de outros épicos mesopotâmicos), mas nesse eram bem mais extensas, algumas páginas e algumas vezes, o que desviou minha atenção. Fiquei com vontade de ler outra tradução para comparar.
