The empires and cultures in the ancient near east had a significant impact on the world of the Bible, and on the Israelites themselves.  Yahweh, the God of the Bible, is distinct from the gods of these cultures and we won't know how he's different unless we know how the other gods and their legacies were characterized.  Join me in looking at creation myths from Babylon, Sumeria and Egypt, and what it can all tell us about God and the Bible.
