could you please compare and constract the flood in Gilgamesh and the flood in the Bible....please!!?

Answer 1

Very similar tales, the flood tale was probably hijacked by the Israelites during the Babylonian exile, This becomes all the more probable when you consider that the old testement wasn`t written down until about 600bc. Also, the garden of Eden story is a hebrew interpretation of the Babylonian tale, the garden of Dilmun.

Answer 2

well, the most interesting part to me is that although parts of the wording make it apparent that the Bible borrowed the story from Gilgamesh, the original Gilgamesh flood is a river flood.

Answer 3

very similar, but not the same.
