Cuneiform records made some three thousand years ago are the basis for this essay on the ideas of death and the afterlife and the story of the flood which were current among the ancient peoples of the Tigro-Euphrates Valley. With the same careful scholarship shown in his previous volume, "The Babylonian Genesis," Heidel interprets the famous Gilgamesh Epic and other related Babylonian and Assyrian documents. He compares them with corresponding portions of the Old Testament in order to determine the inherent historical relationship of Hebrew and Mesopotamian ideas.

1946年第一版,1949年第二版。譯文部分現在讀起來意義不大,因為有更完整的本子。研究部分感覺一般,作者不承認創世記的造人和洪水故事承襲古代巴比倫神話傳統,但討論不甚有力。這本書似乎是打字稿直接排版,讀著纍眼。譯文中不雅的段落居然還用拉丁文頂替。【方誌彤贈書】
