In the #Mesopotamian creation-flood “stories” the gods created the human race as “#slaves” whose task it was to manage the universe for them giving them food, clothing, and honor in temple #ceremonies. In an unforeseen development, however, the human race grew so numerous and noisy that the gods could not sleep. Deeply anger, the #gods decided to destroy the race by a #universalflood. One man and his family, however secretly warned of the flood by his #patrongod, built a boat and survived. Soon regretting their impetuous decisions, the gods created a revised version of humankind. The new race was created “#mortal” so they would never again grow numerous and bother the gods. #creation #theflood #renewedcreation #sevendaycreation #godsword #asabovesobelow #vibration #MOTIONGOD #motioncontrol #Genesis #TheSecondComing #thesecondcreation #mesopotamian #mesopotamianliterature #firstmillennia #history #myth it’s not history or myth it’s misleading when you use those words it’s a #CreationFloodStory #philosophical #theological “the stories reveal a #privilegedtime, when #divine decisions were made that determined the future of the #humanrace.
