And some stories in the old testament are from Gilgamesh and Atrahasis Epos, like Mose’ abandonement in a reed basket as an example. Literally all beings and concepts in christianity have a pagan origin. Even ancient YHWH/Yahweh/Jehovah/Tetragrammaton (God) goes probably back to El. But i guess that’s natural, concepts like an underworld are in above epics too, those sorts of stories developed over civilizations. linkfedilink
