⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Donald Alexander Mackenzie’s Myths of Babylonia and Assyria is a rich collection of the ancient stories, legends, and religious beliefs that shaped Mesopotamian civilization. From creation myths and flood narratives to the tales of Ishtar, Marduk, and other deities, Mackenzie presents these myths with scholarly detail and narrative flair. From a Catholic perspective, this audiobook is valuable for understanding the cultural context of the Old Testament. The parallels between the Babylonian flood myths and the biblical account of Noah, or the epic of Gilgamesh and Scriptural themes of mortality, highlight how divine revelation purifies and perfects the truths only dimly glimpsed in pagan religions. While the myths themselves reflect man’s yearning for God but distorted through idolatry, they provide a deeper appreciation of how the fullness of truth is revealed only in Christ and safeguarded by the Church. This work is recommended for Catholics who wish to study the pagan world surrounding Israel, and to see how God’s revelation triumphs over myth and error.
