I will preface this explanation with some choice words by HPHC:
"Myth = Symbolism and coded divine information, and never literal events that transpired physically. Myths exist to illustrate ultimate realities and what the Initiate is supposed to do to enlighten themselves in the context of their spiritual processes."
The Sumerian mythologies and systems are some of the most fascinating, as they were the last Empire who met the Gods directly. However, due to historical friction and their old age, we have very little left of these systems. Some of the best information on Sumeria can be found in our Libraries and main site, by HPS Maxine and HPHC, where the best publicly available info has been compiled, as well as added to based on personal revelations.
Others like Zachiaria Stitchin, as well as some modern historians, have made some progress as well, while also making mistakes.
The Enemy also accidentally kept some elements alive, through its Creation and Flood Myth, as well as other Myths of the Enemy, which have been thoroughly exposed by ToZ.
Now that our knowledge of our God, Zeus, is far more clear, we have a lot of answers to past questions, but many might also have new questions.
One such question I ended up having was "Well, if Enki and Enlil are the same person, what does the myth where they fight over creation mean?".
Someone could easily, from this, get angry and make a Forum post yelling at HPHC that this doesn't make any sense. I didn't. I prayed to Zeus for answers and then went and did research, with clarity and religious zeal to find answers.
It's actually quite simple. In the Creation story, Zeus is once again a Trinity, like in the East or in Greece (Hades-Poseidon-Zeus, or Zefs-Dias-Zinas).
He is Anu, the Creative Principle and Divine Mind, who does not intervene in human affairs.
He is Enlil, the maintainer of life and hierarchy, who enforces the principles of fate and natural life.
He is Enki, the purifier and mysterious guide, who offers Godhead.
Here, Anu does not intervene, but Enlil and Enki are "at odds".
This is another allegory for the power of the Gods over nature, such as the Titanomachy in Greece, but here, the focus is on Zeus (here, as Enki) and his love for humanity, and his promise of Godhead.
First, the Divine is at stasis, as the Igigi, a younger class of gods, were forced to toil endlessly. This is the primordial state of nature.
Zeus and the Gods stand at the top of the hierarchy, and life works under their decrees.
Then, the Igigi rebel, and are slain by the Gods.
A Divine council is called, where the identities of Zeus as Enlil (patriarch of existence and highest of Gods) and as Enki (bringer of Godhead and creator of Humanity) debate over creating humanity.
Enki suggested fashioning humans from clay (as physical beings), but to give them life and divine spark (a rational soul with the capacity for advancement). They would mix the clay with the blood of a slain god.
In the Akkadian version, the god Geshtu-e, a God representing intelligence, willed to be chosen. He was sacrificed, and from his blood and the earth, humans were shaped by Enki and the womb-goddess Nintu.
The new humans are meant to work for the Gods and glorify them, but this is now a Divine purpose, from where Godhead can be achieved.
From then onwards, the Enemy steals this mythology in order to frame their own God as some leader of creation, and to frame the one who granted Godhead as a villain.
Judaism, here, was very limited in its understanding, as these two were truly the same being, as this myth acts as an allegorical explanation of Divine processes.
In Sumeria, we see plenty more myths where more Gods are created and they go on to bless humanity, so neither Enlil nor Enki are seen as negative, and they were equally worshipped.
Would Sumerians know that they are the same being? Unlikely that average farmers would, nor would they care. Not every person who worshipped the Gods was some sort of theologian or occultist. But there were certainly High Priests who knew.
