I speak in a figurative way about the relationship between the earth and the sky, and I believe that there's a sky god.
我用一种修辞法,来说天地关系,我相信有一个天神。

They seem to be reaching toward the sky there, but not reaching toward the sky as in the cupola of a Baroque church where you're supposed to see God at the top.

You have the young storm god, Marduk, who defeats Tiamat, the watery ferocious deep monster, and does so by blasting a wind into her and so establishes his claim to rule, instead of the old sky god, Anu.
年轻的暴风之神Marduk,凭借一阵狂风,打败了Tiamat-在深水凶猛的怪物,他取代了天空之神Anu,建立了自己的统治。
We see this in the fact that the gods are very often ; associated with natural powerful forces, right? The sky is a god; the fire is a god; fertility--a natural process--is a god.
这一点可以在很多例子中得到证明,就比如说,神灵通常是和自然力量联系在一起的,对吧?有天空之神;,有火焰之神,有丰收之神,等等等等。
