Episode description

Hidden within the poetic verses of the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the world's oldest religious texts, are indispensable clues to the nature and origin of the world's earliest religious tradition- The Ancient Tradition.  Once you've given Tablet II a listen, turn your ear to our sister podcast, The Ancient Tradition, where we reveal striking similarities in the ancient record- myths, cosmologies, theologies, and sacred writings- which point to an original, pure religion in deep antiquity.  Is it the true religion?  If so, you are in for the theological adventure of a lifetime.

In this audio recording of the Epic of Gilgamesh, Tablet II, King Gilgamesh battles the wild man, Enkidu.  Upon Enkidu's concession, Gilgamesh, seeking fame and glory, proposes a venture into the dangerous Forest of Cedar.
