The Atrahasis Epic is a Babylonian poem narrating in continuous sequence the creation of man, overpopulation, divine plagues, and the Flood. Its structural parallels with Genesis are profound, but the theological divergence is fundamental: in Atrahasis man is created as a slave to the gods; in Genesis, "in God's image."
