Note 759 — Chapter XXI
Reading edition
Following Delitzsch, Babylonische Weltschöpfungsepos, pp. 20, 21. I pass over two fragments which Delitzsch adds to our 'epic.' They are not sufficiently clear to be utilized for our purposes. Delitzsch may be right with regard to no. 20, but if so, it forms part or another version of the Marduk-Tiâmat episode. No. 19, treating of the bow of Marduk (?), does not seem to belong to our series.
