>Exegetes recount that Idris was one of "the first people to use the pencil and also one of the first people to observe the movement of the stars, laying the foundations for scientific measurements". The oldest accounts of Idris attribute to him "thirty parts of the revealed scripture", some researchers considering him both a prophet and a messenger of Allah. Although it is not a generally accepted opinion, Idris has been identified with the Hebrew Enoch due to similarities between them
>The biblical patriarchs, the Sumerian kings, the Abgal demigods, the Saptarshi, and the Ten Legendary Kings can be compared in the table below
>Besides Enoch, Enmeduranna, Idris, and Utuabzu, there is another character considered the first mortal to ascend to heaven: Adapa. The Myth of Adapa says that he was "a wise man whose command none should oppose", "the prudent, the wisest among the Anunnaki", "blameless, of clean hands, anointed, an observer of the divine statutes", created by Ea / Enki "as chief among men" and "a model of men". Every day, Adapa came to Enki's temple in Eridu to bring offerings to the god. Once, while fishing in a boat near "the pure dam, the new moon dam", the south wind overturned his boat. Angry, Adapa cursed the wind, causing one of its wings to break. Learning of this, the supreme god Anu commanded his vizier, Ilabrat, to bring him the troublesome priest
>Then Ea, "who knows the heaven", urged Adapa to wear his hair disheveled and a mourning garment when he will stand before Anu, to give an account of his actions. "Food of death they will set before thee, eat not. Water of death they will set before thee, drink not. Garments they will set before thee, put them on. Oil they will set before thee, anoint thyself. The counsel that I have given thee, forget not. The words which I have spoken, hold fast", the god advised him. Ilabrat took Adapa to heaven, before Anu
