Looking at the differences and similarities between the Theogony and Genesis can tell us about the culture of the people who wrote them. The first similarity that I see is the relationship between the first gods in the Theogony and the first things God creates in Genesis.

The first major event in Genesis is creation. I believe this is history. I do believe that the world was created in seven days. To humans it would seem impossible
