How Is Popol Vuh Compared To Genesis

670 Words3 Pages

Wooooooo!!! The crowded yelled as the football team went running down the field to score the game winning touchdown. The team was able to get the ball back because their defense was playing better than they ever have. There is always an argument between people which is the better side of the ball to play on. Offense or Defense? One day one of the coaches asked what is your favorite to play on and there was a huge argument. So the coach said I want you guys to compare and contrast offense and defense. Just like the coach wanted his players to compare and contrast offense and defense I am comparing and contrasting Popol Vuh and Genesis. First, I will contrast Popol Vuh to Genesis to show how Popol Vuh is different. Popol Vuh is different because it has a completely different background than Genesis. In Popol Vuh the Gods created three different types of people while in Genesis they only had one set of people. An example is they created three different people out of three different materials. The first was mud, the second was made from trees and these both did not work so they were destroyed. The third was made out of dirt but had a secret ingredient which was corn and this made these people come to life and were the right ones. The people in …show more content…

They are both are alike and very different their comparisons and contrasts with some very interesting contrasts. Popol Vuh had much more differences when being compared to Genesis. This made it very hard to find the differences for Genesis to go against Popol Vuh. The similarities were also hard to find because they were so different which made this essay fairly challenging to write. I wish we could have done the compare and contrast essay on football. That would have been nice to compare to you which side of the ball I liked better. Obviously I would pick defense because you gotta love hitting people and not getting in

    Between “The Babylonian Creation Epic” and “Theogony” there are many similarities and differences that can be found. One similarity between these two is the idea of two beings, Tiamat and Apsu (fresh and salt water) and Gaia and Ouranos (earth and sky) who couple together and give birth to the first gods. In Gaia and Ouranos’s case, these ‘gods’ are called Titans. In the Babylonian story Marduk, a son of the gods, kills Tiamat and creates humankind from the blood of one of the gods who stood on her side. Whereas in “Theogony” Ouranos is hated by all of his children and ends up castrated by his son Kronos.

    For example, in The world on the Turtle’s Back the creation occurs when the woman falls from the Sky–World and she starts the world from a seed she plants on the turtle’s shell. Meanwhile in Genesis the god created the world with his bare hands; and even though both are supernatural events we can easily see how they differ.

In the other hand, we have The World on the Turtle’s Back the balance between evil and good it is represented by how the twins acted; their attitude, their creations and how their perspective of the world. That’s something that I like about TWTB, that it demonstrates that there will always be good and bad in our lives in order to keep a
