When the people of Babylon took over the gods of Sumer, far from overlooking Enlil they made him the second element in their Supreme triad.

He was called 'King of the Land' or 'Lord of all Regions'. Enlil, like Anu, had a reserved promenade in the heavens -'Enlil's Way'- but he normally resided on the Great Mountain of the East.

Do we want to take a quality of praise which is applied only to the name of God and apply it to our own name? How presumptuous can we be?
