Many epics and myths of previous generations can compare to stories of the Old Testament. Myths such as the Enuma Elish, story of Ba\'al, and the Gilgamesh Epic all relate to chapters in Genesis, Psalms, and many other\'s in the Bible. The Gilgamesh Epic especially refers to the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis 2:4-11:32. Both describe the suffering, evil, and mortality result from human arrogance and rebellion.

George Adam Smith found tablets while working at a British Museum. After looking at the tablets, he discovered that they were strikingly similar to the account of the flood in the book of Genesis. Gilgamesh was a historical king of Uruk about 2700 BC. He was part human and part animal. Some thought that he was too harsh on his people and summoned the sky-god, Anu. Anu created Enkidu, a man who was supposed to be more superior than Gilgamesh, so he could kill him. While Enkidu was running wildly with the animals throughout the forest, a woman named Shamhat discovered him and offered herself sexually to him. He succumbed to her and lost his power and strength at once, very much like Samson did to Delilah (Judges 16).

This part of the Gilgamesh Epic is like that of Adam and Eve. Adam was the first human created
