Gilgamesh Epic and Old Testament Parallels
Author: Alexander Heidel
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226323985
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Cuneiform records made some three thousand years ago are the basis for this essay on the ideas of death and the afterlife and the story of the flood which were current among the ancient peoples of the Tigro-Euphrates Valley. With the same careful scholarship shown in his previous volume, The Babylonian Genesis, Heidel interprets the famous Gilgamesh Epic and other related Babylonian and Assyrian documents. He compares them with corresponding portions of the Old Testament in order to determine the inherent historical relationship of Hebrew and Mesopotamian ideas.

Enki & Enlil: My Brother, My Enemy
Author: Sam Oputa
Publisher: Sam Oputa
ISBN:
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
In Enki & Enlil, My Brother My Enemy, we will take you on an unimaginable and profound journey into the heart of ancient settings, musings, ancient mind-set, ancient histories, and ancient practices to reveal a breathtaking, hidden reality that will transform your understanding and life forever and in many ways. The suggestions in this work will show that we are debating present and ancient matters that will help uplift you spiritually. Spirituality, in this sense, is enlightenment—nothing else. Enlightenment is perhaps one of the reasons even the Gods are at each other’s throats up to this day. Enlightenment is so highly-priced that Enlil was willing to antagonize Enki in His attempt to "civilize” mankind. Enlil was willing to become man’s opposer and even Enki’s enemy because He did not want any enlightenment for mankind. In Enki & Enlil, My Brother My Enemy, we will show that there is indeed a God. How you define that God is up to you and may change after reading this book. Though the general assumption is that God is One, there are those who have explained how such an assumption was reached and thus propagated. Enki & Enlil were no happenings of circumstances. They deliberately traveled to earth for purposes serving their interests. Anu was the leader, and the other extraterrestrials were His subjects. Earthlings acknowledge them as Gods. Today, the extraterrestrials—aliens—are simply and popularly known as God & and the angels. Indeed, Enki & Enlil so frequently appear in our daily lives through the Bible’s Old Testament. Not many people know that their lives were and are influenced by Enki alias Satan and “God” alias EL Shaddai, EL this and EL that, and all the other commandeered and assimilated names. Whatever the “offence” Enki (Satan) may have “committed” and/or was accused of, such a charge is indeed laughable today and always will be, at least if not for anything but for the scale of its inaccuracy. Today, however, like a cockroach before a jury of Chickens, Enki, too, cannot get justice, equity, and good acknowledgement among mankind mostly due to the on-going campaign of calumny. The books of the Old Testament in the Bible don’t tell lies. Whether it had been tampered with is another debate altogether. As for the New Testament, it is impossible to testify and swear to its truthfulness. If you are a student of the Old Testament, Enki & Enlil, My Brother My Enemy is a must-read if you indeed want to understand the ancient books and their writings, and the Old Testament. The writings of the Old Testament were true then and are true today. Depending on your reality, you may want to realize your own truth, but at the end of the written text is what it is—the truth. Whether Enki or Enlil, you are implored to decide who the jolly good fellow was and is. Who is the jolly good fellow? Who is the bad fellow? One of them is BAD. REALLY BAD. The other is GOOD. SO GOOD. Who then was/is mankind’s opposer? You’d be shocked, but this truth has been staring us all in the face, as the narratives of the Old Testament attest to. The crafty diversions used to deceive readers into becoming believers employed by those who put the Old Testament together have come home to roost. The so-called monotheism cannot hold up. Was the so-called monotheism, therefore, a gimmick or an attempt at impression to deceive? Finding the truth could be hard even while it is in plain sight. The truth, however, is like Mark Twain’s quote, “A lie travels around the globe while the truth is putting on its shoes.”

These women were exceptional for their time, with their decisive and brave actions that reshaped their communities and saved lives.
