    How Did Utanapishtim Build The Ark

    Most biblical historians and theological scholars have determined that the Great Flood as told in Genesis occurred sometime around 2500BC. In Genesis 6 through 8 it tells of how God who became dissatisfied with the wickedness of mankind causes a flood in order to destroy mankind. Before the flood, however, God finds a righteous man and tells him to build an ark for his family and the animals of the earth in order for them to repopulate the Earth after the flood. The rains begin causing a flood that kills every living creature of the Earth except for those that are on the ark. Eventually, the rains stop, the flood waters finally recede, dry land is found allowing Noah and his family along with all of the animals to leave the ark.…

    Comparing Noah's Ark And Gilgamesh

    The Epic of Gilgamesh had one of three Akkadian flood myths. The Sumerians also created their own story of a flood; where the biblical flood story, found in Genesis 9, has a lot of similarities. They are similar because they both had a global floodsent by god or gods which was done to control people. The gods contacted the hero and told him to build the ark. Both Arks were very large and contained different types of aminals. In the end the hero of course got too choose how it ended by releasing the animals, and the the hero sacrifsed the gods, who blessed…

    Noahs Ark and Gilgamesh

    The Epic of Gilgamesh Flood Story and the Noah’s Ark story from the Bible are similar in many ways. They are similar in the sense that they both got rid of their houses and all of their belongings. Noah received his message from God to start building the boat while Gilgamesh received his message in a dream. But in the story of Noah’s Ark, Noah was to build the boat to exact measurements which were 300 cubits for its length, 50 cubits for its width, and 30 cubits for its height. Where in the Epic of the Gilgamesh it was to be built “shall have her dimensions in proportion, Her width and length in harmony.” The story never tells how big the boat was for all living seeds. So as a reader we can picture Noah’s massive boat where we cannot do the same for Gilgamesh’s boat They were both were to build enormous boats that would be able to hold all forms of life. In the Epic of Gilgamesh Flood Story, Gilgamesh fills his boat with all forms of life along with silver and gold. Whereas Noah built the boat only to fit all animals and his family. The Epic of Gilgamesh fought through only six days and seven nights where Noah fought through forty days and forty nights. But we do know the Bible uses the number 40 as a way of saying a long period of time. Both Gilgamesh and Noah released a Raven and a Dove but Noah released 3 doves while Gilgamesh only released a swallow after the release of other two birds. The Gilgamesh Epic has close parallels with the account of Noah’s Flood. Its close similarities are due to its closeness to the real event. However, there are major differences as well. Everything in the Epic, from the polytheism to the absurd cubical ark, as well as the worldwide flood legends, show me that the Genesis account is the original, while the Gilgamesh Epic is a distortion.…

    Comparing Gilgamesh And God In Genesis

    The first being there was a flood sent by the gods to destroy the inhabitant of the earth. Both of the stories take place in Mesopotamia. The gods in both books tell one person to get their family to build a ship and gather all the different types of animals because they were going to flood the earth. The gods did this in both books because they were angry with humans. In both of the stories the boat only contained one door. When the flooding was over the ships both landed on mountain tops. Noah and Utnapishtim both use birds to find out when the water had lowered enough to leave. Noah and Utnapishtim also both offered sacrifices to the gods after the flood and were both…

    Essay Comparing Yahwist And Gilgamesh

    Growing up in a Christian home, it was mandatory to go to church every Wednesday and Sunday. Since my mother always attended “big church” with the other adults, she felt like I needed to grow up through a youth group. In youth group, we learned many things about God and the bible. We would learn about David and Goliath, Samson and Delilah, Joseph and Mary, and many more stories. However, one story that seems to be the most significant is the story of Noah and the Ark. Noah is one of the most influential people in the Bible who steered away from God and his word. When thinking about the story of Noah, another story is very similar to the life of Noah. In the story of Gilgamesh, a man by the name of Utnaptishtim experience the fate Noah had with the flood. Even though these stories are very similar, there are differences that are present.…

    Continuously, these gods also sin. While Utnapishtim is telling of the deluge account to Gilgamesh in the Epic of Gilgamesh, he mentions that many people, including his own family of eight, entered the ark with him. Utnapishtim also states that many craftsmen assist him in building the ark. Adding to his documentary, Utnapishtim comments that he closes the ginormous ark door, without any help from a god which, although not impossible, must have been very hard without any modern tools. The Epic of Gilgamesh flood account explains that there were only 12 days and nights of…

    In both versions of the flood something angers the higher power/s. In the epic of Gilgamesh, "The uproar of mankind is intolerable and sleep is no longer possible by reasons of the Babel" (Gilgamesh 12). The gods are angered by the disturbance of mankind. In Gilgamesh the Gods are given more human qualities, their decision is an act of selfishness not of a greater good. The council of gods decides to destroy all of humanity so they can sleep…

    Genesis Vs Gilgamesh Essay

    “Build a boat”, they said. “The flood will come”, they said. The flood stories of “The Epic of Gilgamesh” and “The Genesis” are both accounts of the great disasters that wiped out most of the population of Earth that have both differences and similarities on what happened when the floods occurred. These stories parallel each other in many areas including the warning given to an individual being, the instruction to build an ark, the instruction to bring a sampling of species on board, the method by which land was eventually discovered at its conclusion, and the sacrifice offered by each at the end. While very few, there are some differences in the tales. The length of the strife, and the way that the individual was warned are just some of these differences.…

    The Epic of Gilgamesh tells a story of “The Flood”. A man name Utnapishtim tells Gilgamesh about a city called Shuruppak. This city was too loud for the Gods and they could get no sleep so they agreed to exterminate mankind by causing the whole world to flood. Utnapishtim however, is visited by a god, named Ea, in a dream and is told to build a boat with certain measurements so that he may survive. Utnapishtim built the boat and covers it in pitch. Then he fills the boat with animals wild…

    Gilgamesh Vs Genesis

    The occurrence of the flood is similar in both the Genesis and Gilgamesh. In both, two men are employed to build a boat in the event of an upcoming flood. Noah is advised by God to “Make [himself] an ark of cypress wood” (Genesis 6), and to survive the upcoming floods with his family and two of many livestock. Likewise, Utnapishtim is approached by the God Ea to “demolish the house, and build a boat” (Gilgamesh 89). Both are ordered to build a boat with many compartments to save the animals to repopulate the world after the floods. Both Noah and Utnapishtim’s families are also the only survivors of both floods because of the boats. Another similarity between Gilgamesh and…

    The Story of the Flood in Three Gilgamesh, the Metamorphosis and Genesis

    The reasons for the flood depended on the gods who created the flood. In Gilgamesh, the gods were arbitrary because they had no proper reasoning or explanation as to why they sent a flood to kill the human race. Because of this, it can be concluded that these gods did not have the wisdom of other gods, like in the other two works. These gods made rash decisions without thinking about the consequences. Gilgamesh’s Utnapishtim explains his story, “I was king once, a long time ago, / when the great gods decided to send the flood.”(pg181) These gods just decided to send a flood. They don’t give any reasoning. This shows that they don’t have the people in their interest. In Metamorphoses, the god says that people are becoming wicked, “The Iron Age succeeded…and righteousness fled earth.”(pg7) Similar to Genesis, this god is aware of what he is doing because he even came down to earth to survey the situation. This god…

    Next, God as a loving partner and God as a warrior are compatible with Noah and the Flood. As a loving partner, God allowed Noah to preach for 120 years about the flood (Genesis 6:3). This gave the people sufficient amount of time to harken to the words of Noah. Everyone had a chance to trust Noah and be saved. God showed compassion towards Noah by…
