The bible's creation myth, Genesis, is in fact based on older stories, from Egypt, the Mesopotamian myths featuring Marduk and Tiamat, and from the Proto Indo European culture's creation myth. This video discusses the evidence within the book of Genesis of the Old Testament, that show how its origins are from the Indo European creation myth, and so the origins could be considered Proto Indo European.

With thanks to those who inspired and helped me with the Herbew and biblical texts....
