Although there are differences in the way the conclusive details of the flood are told, both the Book of Metamorphoses and the Old Testament emphasize how disobedience from God or gods sent forth a flood to destroy mankind. Thus, both accounts describe the actualization of the society to worship and show reverence to the God, or deity gods in ultimate control.
All three works that describe the flood share similarities and differences in detailing the events that take place. They differentiate on the varied messages they place emphasis on. The Old Testament is more simple and organized to the expressively written Epic of Gilgamesh and Metamorphoses. The main distinction have to do with spiritual diversity between distinct cultures. It is because of these variations in writing and technique, that each of these poems have acquired and maintained the respect they truly deserve through years of evaluation and criticism. Lets take each account for what its worth and not what it lacks!
