There is a striking resemblance between the story of Noah's
flood and the ancient Sumerian flood. Only the names of the characters and
their language look different. The original text of the story and the subject
matter are the same, so can we say that the story of Noah's flood is actually a
replica of the ancient Sumerian Diomala. Or at least derived from it, or both
stories describe a real great flood in a divinatory way that may have occurred
at some point in the Tigris and Euphrates. Because it is impossible for a flood
to come globally.
Because we know that the story of Noah's Flood, which was
copied directly from the Jews by Christianity and Islam, had a similar story to
the first Sumerian civilization in Mesopotamia five thousand years ago. Even
though the nation of Israel did not exist at that time, Abraham was not yet
born.
We also know that the destruction of the first temple as a
result of the invasion of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, led to the Jews
being enslaved in Babylon (Mesopotamia) for a long time after 620 BC. The Jews
lived in Babylon for about a century, until Cyrus the Great ( Zulqarnain of the
Qur'an ) conquered and liberated Babylon and helped build the Second Temple of
Solomon.
During his stay in Babylon and later in Persia, many new
things were added to Jewish beliefs that were first part of their religious
traditions. Most of these traditions were taken from the ancient Parsis /
Zoroastrians of Persia, such as the concept of the devil of the merciful Satan,
and from it derived the concept of good and evil, the concept of heaven and
hell and the concept of angels, etc. Inevitably, other Semitic religions in the
region may have influenced Judaism as well. The same effect may include the
story of a great flood in ancient times.
We also have the ancient Sumerian inscription Gilgamesh,
which is in the curved cuniform script of the old Sumerian language. In this
story we find mention of a great flood. The gods were angry with the actions of
humans and sent them to destroy. According to Gulgamish's epic poem, the story
is told to Gulgamish by a priest named Utna Pashtam. According to Gulgamish's
poem, the hero of this story has landed. A god who sympathizes with human
beings foretells the flood of Enki. And he commands that he build a great ark,
and that every one of the creatures be a pair of it. Itrahas does just that.
Then the flood starts in the Tigris Euphrates and engulfs the whole world. Only
those who survive aboard the Ark of the Covenant survive.
Apart from Gulgamish, there is another story of this flood
which is written on the tablets discovered from a different place. This is the
story of the same storm, but the name of the hero here is Zeusdra instead of
Uttarahas. It is also written in the Sumerian language. The first part deals
with the creation of man and animals and the formation of the first cities. It
tells how the gods created man from clay. According to him, the first cities
built by the gods were the cities of Emeritus, Badbera, Larsa, Saipar, Ur,
Orak, and Shoropak.
According to the story, the gods decided to send a flood to
destroy mankind. The god Enki (the freshwater underwater sea god whose
Babylonian equivalent is EA) warns Zeusdra, a good man, the ruler of the city
of Shoropak, to build a large ark. The details of the boat are missing.
However, according to the plaque, there was a terrible storm
for seven days, "a huge boat was thrown into the great waters," then
Yuto (the sun) appeared and Jesudra opened the window of the boat, prostrated,
and a bull and a sheep. Sacrificed
Then, according to the inscription on the tablet, when the
flood is over, he prostrates before Zeusdra, the god "N" (god of the
sky) and the god "Ann Lill", who give him "eternal breath"
and let him stay in Dilmun. Take for The rest of the poem is lost.
The slight
difference between this story and the story of Gulgamish is that according to
Gulgamish, Zeusdra's boat stopped on a hill, but according to these plaques,
after the great flood, " Was chosen where the sun rises. " Dilmon is
commonly known as the island of Bahrain today. Which was a colony in the
Persian Gulf south of Mesopotamia ...!
