A Comparison of Two Narratives of War with God in the Mehr Myth and the Old Testament

One of the stories about the myth of Mithra is her war with the god of sun on the birthday. On the other hand, one of the most questionable stories in Bible is the wrestling of Yaghoub with Elohim, the style, theme and features of which attributed to God does not certainly belong to the Old Testament. But so far as the elements of narrative are concerned, it is similar to the narrative suggested by Mehr religion.  According to the similar fiction in the Mithra religion, this article suggested that the wrestling with the goddess has moved from oral fiction of Mithra religion to Judaism. We considered the historical study of cultural contact that seems to have started from the era of Huris rule and Nuz civilization. In addition, some common elements like night, water, the sun and the morning are also reviewed. The most important mythological element of this narrative is to grant Farrah (blessing); however, the difference is that in the genesis, Elohim grants the blessing to Yaghoub, while in Mithra, the Mehr grants the light beams and the rule of the heavens to the sun. This difference is due to the transfer of one mythic element from a non-monotheistic religion to a monotheistic one.
