A Case for Ea / Enki as YHWH and the Number Forty

𒀭𒂗𒆠 = (dingir) EN-KI

Enki is associated with the SQUARE of the constellation Pegasus.

𒐏 = 40 in Sumerian

40 is the sacred number of Ea / Enki

The appearance of 40 symbolizes a period of purification, cleansing, or testing. For example:

40 days and 40 nights - the great flood

40 days of purification - Jesus, Moses, Ezekiel, Elijah, Buddha

40 years of wandering - the tribes of Israel in the wilderness of Sin
