The Adam & Eve Myth - Origins
|
I'm seeking information on whether or not the biblical Adam & Eve story was derived from earlier myths, such a Babylonian or Sumerian creation stories. Please include citations and or links. Thank you.

Pretty sure the original Zeitgeist movie had examples of this as well as the many ancient examples of the birth of "Jesus".

Yeah, doesn't something look suspicious when Babylonians were the ones who determined 7 days week and then, suddenly, this all powerful Jewish God follows Babylonian pattern of 7 day week and even rests on Saturday?
Just wondering... what piqued your curiosity about this, Gwaithmir?

You could drop a metric fuckton of information on this asswipes head, and they would still blindly swim in that Egyptian river
I seem to recall something in the Vedas about a pair of birds on a tree branch. One of the birds ate forbidden fruit and brought pain and death into the world. No link, sorry.
