“Much more might be said about this magnum opus, but suffice it to
say in conclusion that just as Professor Lambert’s Babylonian
Wisdom Literature enables a generation of students to understand
better the Hebrew books of Job, Proverbs and Qoheleth, so his
Babylonian Creation Myths will help future generations of students
understand better the creation-themed texts in Genesis, Job, the
Psalter and the Prophets. Students around the world will find it
difficult to measure their depth of gratitude not only for this
volume but also that Professor Lambert lived long enough to
complete it.”—Michael S. Moore Review of Biblical Literature
“Babylonian Creation Myths is an excellent book and a worthy
memorial of a great Assyriologist.”—Michael P. Streck Bulletin of
the School of Oriental and African Studies
