Using CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS it is a possibility that Sumerian "TEXT" presenting FLOOD and CREATION stories may have been HEARD by PEOPLE , spread from person to person various SOCIETIES and adopted as their own or a INDIVIDUAL PERSON in a Culture or society presented "THEIR " explanation of CREATION and DESTRUCTION when you get down to the SOURCE is a HUMAN MIND BOB claiming SKY PEOPLE / ANUNNAKI
TED claiming YAHWEH
GEORGE claiming THOR
HARRY claiming VISHNU
the SOURCE of all the CLAIMS are PEOPLE
without Demonstration to be "the case " or True "
identify the "MEANS " to distinquish if Gary is labeling his OWN thoughts as an EXTERNAL VOICE or is Gary having a DELUSION the MEANS is independent of Gary just ASSERTING would be verification by demonstration what Gary claims is THE CASE / TRUE other wise one has AUTHORITARIANISM what Gary says is to be ACCEPTED as CORRECT merely cause of WHO said it GARY that would be the same as BOB said the people in his society are COMMANDED to HATE ALL People born on the island of Hawaii Moses claims HIS "god " said KILL all the Midian Adult males young males Women who have known a Man EXCEPT Midian Females who have NOT known a Male ( Virgins ) what is the difference between a Midian FEMALE age 10 and a Midian MALE age 10 what was the justification for invading and killing Midians and how does being a FEMALE VIRGIN exempt you from the justification to be killed so the justification to KILL was ADULT male and ADULT female sex and pre - puberty or puberty males ( VIRGINS) are to be killed and exempt are female VIRGINS pre- puberty or puberty the GOAL was to TAKE OVER the LAND and EXTERMINATE the Midians who occupied the " promised land " with the CLAIM the Midians led ( Numbers 31 ) the "Israelite " to SIN against "god " related to the "FALSE " prophet BALAAM ( numbers 22 ) and kill the 5 MIDIANITE Kings supposedly BALAAM told king BALAK how to get the ISRAELITE / HEBREWS to commit SIN by ENTICING them with SEXUAL IMMORALITY and FOOD SACRIFICED to " IDOLS "
according to HEALTHLINE person with a DELUSION may "BELIEVE " they have a SPECIAL power or ability or a SPECIAL relationship or connection or IS A special leader the person with the delusion will not listen to any other view point about the BELIEF or consider CHANGE even when EVIDENCE challenges the delusion the delusion impacts their daily life to add a point of reference the land of EGYPT and EGYPTIANS is mentioned 700 TIMES in the Bible the word KILL is used up to 539 TIMES depending on the versions of Bible
No, Canasnite and general Semitic literature and mythology.
Bible stories circulated and were preserved via oral tradition, long before they were ever set down in writing. The Sumerians did not have the benefit of divine revelation, so the best they could do was try to make sense of things, according to their own, very limited understanding. Ditto for Wallis, while God inspired all the sacred, biblical writers. Can't beat that!
WRONG ASSUMPTIONS...GOD INSPIRED THE WHOLE BIBLE.
Please do some more research on people in the Bible and the time line of the Sumerian religions and the time line of the Bible.
For some un-documented reason Terah rejected the religion/s which you reference. His son Abram (later on to be called Abraham) began a quest to find the city of God.
The only issue is what texts did Abraham have, were they passed down to future generations.
I maintain the Sumerian texts are an adulteration of what Abraham had, not the other way around.
Keep in mind by the time of Moses the religions based on the Sumerian Texts were already history and forgotten. The Jews plagiarizing them would be impossible to prove and very doubtful except with a wild imagination.
well, not absolutely true, Sumaria isn't even the oldest society on the earth if you want something older for verification, there are places in south america, and yet of course i will not believe anything that says these places are older than 14 thousand years. its all a fraud, there is peer review corruption, there is "knowledge filtration" and the people that get pay checks are obviously lying dishonest people because they want their carnal security in a career of teaching
ask the historians that are black balled ! there is a conspiracy there, even among christian universities to not teach creation science facts and the truth. listen to Kent Hovind for sure, and watch the ben stein movie for additional truths about what evolutiionists really believe. and no one can believe the text books if they teach Lucy was an ancestor, it was proven as a hoax along with the pilt down man, and i put money to moonshine the Kennewick man is a lie also
Anunnaki just means children of Anu.
They’re not aliens.
The Anunnaki, like Enlil and Enki, were the gods of the Sumerians.
Sumerian religion and culture was absorbed by the Akkadians, the original Babylonians.
Enlil became known as Baal and Enki became known as Ea (Yah).
Much of the legends of Enlil and Enki would greatly influence the stories in Genesis, such as Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, the Tower of Babel, and the great flood.
But, as I say, they were not aliens, just imagined gods of a very ancient people
Of course...and where did the Sumerian-tablets come from?
Both Egypt and Sumeria were the last outposts of Atlantis;
just like Tibet and California/Arizona were the last colonies
of Lemuria.
The bible did not even exists until the fourth century and those who wrote about the times were not living during such as these "tails" were passed verbally for hundreds of years before they became significant enough to be written down.
Well, I doubt Sumerian myths played a direct roll, but the myths that were passed down to and molded by their successors, Assyrians and Babylonians, have a huge impact on the Bible, especially those that were born into Babylonian culture while in captivity. One source of the Torah was written during the exile and uses Babylonian natural philosophy and law codes (see documentary hypothesis).
