Nimrod, Nibiru and the Anunnaki
Notice how researchers like to say that many stories in the Old Testament represent "shorter versions of" or
"copies of" ancient Sumerian writings. We read the same thing in the paragraph from Wikipedia above. Well,
while doing my research, I found a Short Chronology Timeline of ancient cultures and in that timeline
something immediately jumped out at me. The earliest records point to one of the first kings of the
Mesopotamian region, a man known as Sargon.
Sargon of Akkad, also known as Sargon the Great "The Great King" (Akkadian Šarru-k nu,
meaning "the true king" or "the king is legitimate"),[1] was an Akkadian emperor famous for his
conquest of the Sumerian city-states in the 23rd and 22nd centuries BC.[2] The founder of the
Dynasty of Akkad, Sargon reigned from 2,270 to 2,215 BC (short chronology).[3] He became a
prominent member of the royal court of Kish, killing the king and usurping his throne
before embarking on the quest to conquer Mesopotamia. He was originally referred to
as Sargon I until records concerning an Assyrian king also named Sargon (now usually referred
to as Sargon I) were unearthed. [4]
[emphasis mine]
Many have made the connection that "Kish" is the "Cush" of the Bible (Nimrod's father according to Genesis).
So, is this record saying that Nimrod killed his father? It would seem so. The above quoted Wikipedia source
also makes the connection that Sargon may in fact be Nimrod:
Stories of Sargon's power and that of his empire may have influenced the
body of folklore that was later incorporated into the Bible. A number of
scholars have speculated that Sargon may have been the inspiration for
the biblical figure of Nimrod, who figures in the Book of Genesis as well
as in midrashic and Talmudic literature.[12] The Bible mentions Akkad as
being one of the first city-states of Nimrod's kingdom, but does not
explicitly state that he built it.[39]
That author suggests that this Sargon character was the "inspiration for the
biblical figure of Nimrod" implying that the Bible merely borrowed its story from
elsewhere. But I submit that the Bible is simply confirming the story - just from
a Hebrew perspective (as dictated to Moses by God). Nimrod is not a name. It
is a title that means, "the rebellious one." That certainly seems to fit the above
description of Sargon. Notice also the sculpture of this character to the right. It
has one eye missing! Keep this in mind as we continue this study.
The date given for his reign is 2,270 - 2,215 BC. That believed date almost
perfectly fits the timeframe depicted in my Biblical Timeline of Human
History Chart as being just prior to the Tower of Babel (which of course was built by Nimrod)!
