The Epic of Gilgamesh ?Return? page 28 #1-5 Did the gods and goddesses in Gilgamesh behave in ways you expected? Explain. In my opinion, the gods and goddesses did not behave in ways that I expected because I view gods as holy omnipresent all knowing mercy form of spirit, however in the epic of Gilgamesh, the gods are portrayed as ruthless selfish forms that is lazy. How does Gilgamesh come to hear the story of the flood? Relative to the other events in Gilgamesh, when did the flood happen? Why is Utnaphistim able to tell about it?
