The Genesis and Greek creation stories are both similar and different in how they use literary archetypes.
Both the Greek and Genesis stories utilize the villain archetype. Greek detail: "Cronus swallowed each of his children as they were born" (Greek Myth). This proves that cronus is filling the role of the villain archetype. His lust for power is so great that he selfishly sacrifices his own children to keep his throne.
Creatrion detail: "The serpent told the woman, "You wont die. God knows that the moment you eat from that tree you'll see what's going on. You'll be just like God, knowing everything ranging all the way from good or evil.
The Greek and Genesis creation stories also contrast, with the former having an epic battle or father/son and the latter a garden archetype.
Greek detail: 'Cronus grabbed his father and castrated him with stone sickle".
Cronus did this to his father shown that its the father/son rivalry.
Uran*s didn't want Cronus to dethrone him so Cronus had to find a way to k** his father.
Genesis detail: "God spoke earth green up grow all varieties of seed bearing plants.
This shows the Garden Archetype because God grew trees from the ground so the man can eat from them.
God had created a beautiful piece of nature.
These two examples show how different archetypes were used in each of the creation stories.
