>The Emperor asked him why he broke the wing of the south wind and Adapa admitted that he was upset because the wind overturned his boat. Because the guardians of the celestial gate supported Adapa, Anu "calmed himself" but could not help but wonder: "why has Ea revealed to impure mankind the heart of heaven and Earth? A heart... has created within him, has made him a name?". Although he found no answer to this question and forgot that Adapa should have been punished for destroying the wing of the south wind, Anu wondered: "what can we do with him?". Immediately he decided: "food of life bring him, that he may eat"
>However, Adapa did not forget Ea's teachings: "Food of life they brought him, but he ate not. Water of life they brought him, but he drank not. Garments they brought him. He clothed himself. Oil they brought him. He anointed himself". Anu looked at Adapa and asked: "Come, Adapa, why hast thou not eaten, not drunken? Now thou shalt not live". The priest admitted that Enki had taught him to refuse food and drink. Upon hearing this, Emperor Anu sent him back. "Take him and bring him back to his earth", he commanded the guards
>Adapa is considered one of the seven Abgal / Apkallu, sent by Enki to civilize mankind, equated by some researchers with Utuabzu. Being the first human to fly to heaven, son of Enki, and a high priest, Adapa can only be Enoch. His story can help us discover the truth about how Anu was informed of the deeds of the Watchers in the Book of Enoch. However, to do this, we need to resolve the inconsistencies in the Myth of Adapa. We do not know why Anu granted Adapa immortality, as the legend does not explain this aspect. Maybe he offered the gift of immortality because of the sincerity that Adapa had shown
