The genesis and Greek creation stories are both similar and different in
how they use literary archetypes.
Both the Greek and genesis creation stories utilize the villain archetype. Greek detail:
“Cronus swallowed each of his children as they were born” (Greek Myth). This proves that
Cronus is filling the role of the villain archetype. His lust for power is so great that he selfishly
sacrifices his own children to keep the throne. The serpent was clever, cleverer than any wild
animal god told you the women: “Do I understand that god told you not to eat from any tree in
the garden” (Genesis Myth). The serpent is so jealous and is really clever. He is really jealous
that he convinces the women to disobey god and eat from the tree of knowledge. These examples
show both stories using the villain archetype.

The Greek and Genesis creation stories also contact, with the former having a father/son and the
latter a garden archetype. Cronus grabbed his father and castrated him, with stone sickle,
throwing the served genitals into the ocean” (Greek Myth). There enemies, going against each
other, and with lots of hate. The Greek is the only one that has a father/son archetype. God made
all kinds of trees grow from the ground, trees beautiful to look at and good to eat “(Genesis
Myth). God made a garden witch it is an order and controlled place that is usually safe, happy
and nurturing. God made a garden archetype in genesis but in the Greek there is no such thing as
a garden archetype. The Greek story was mainly showing you father/son rivalry which in the
genesis didn't have, but as well as genesis had a garden archetype and the Greek story didn't.
