I question the timelines scholars give to these myths. Also Satan knew of God's plan beforehand i.e. "You will not surely die..." so a counterfeit story could have been fashioned before the fact.The reality is most of those myths have to be severely twisted to even remotely resemble the OT narratives. Taht's like saying that because the Chinese said 'birds' in an early text somewhere that everybody else must have stolen the idea of 'birds' from the Chinese, i.e. rather bizarre stretches, in that nobody knew about birds until they got it from the Chinese or something. They go through some even more bizarre contortions when they try to claim Egyptian roots for OT narratives.
