Book • 1895
In 'Creation and Chaos in the Primeval Era and the Eschaton', Hermann Gunkel explores the parallels between biblical creation narratives and ancient Near Eastern myths, such as the Enuma Elish.

He argues that these myths influenced Hebrew perceptions of creation and eschatology, tracing their impact from Genesis to Revelation.

This work is a foundational piece in modern biblical scholarship, offering insights into the historical and cultural contexts of biblical texts.
