BABYLONIAN INFLUENCE ON THE BIBLE
This book is available Today to order.
The implications on our religious beliefs and institutions would change drastically if enough people go back to the actual sources-the earliest known sources-of our beliefs systems and examine the evidence. A larger understanding is bound to result. That was the purpose Palmer had in mind when putting this book together, and it is with that hope that we make it available.
A. Smythe Par
From the editor:
Many scholars now know that the Bible creation stories had their origins in far older tales. These stories match the Old Testament stories almost identically and come from clay tablets discovered in ancient Samaria and Babylonia. These tablets used the oldest form of writing known on earth and are the oldest preserved stories the world has ever known. They were passed down over many centuries before being adopted by Moses or whoever wrote the Old Testament.
A number of interesting concepts within these stories were carried over in the Bible from that time forward. For example, the Hebrews have a serpent that introduces mankind to sin and disobedience, which is quite likely the same dragon-serpent in the Babylonian creation story that represents physical evil and chaos. The Babylonian home for evil was in the Deep, or the Abyss, which later became transformed into Hades, or Hell.
Palmer includes a great deal of information on the dragon, whose home was in the Abyss in Babylonian literature. This dragon ultimately became the devil to later Christians. This is fascinating material and the more one explores it, the more things add up and make sense. Palmer explores the Old Testament very carefully in this work, and the Babylonian parallels are amazing.
