AnswerPerhaps not all, but many of the more ancient creation stories of the Mediterranean and Near East regions began with chaos. The struggle between good and evil, or between the righteous gods and the chaos monsters provided a satisfying and plausible explanation for the reasons for the creation of this imperfect world.

We even find fragments of ancient Hebrew chaos stories in Psalms and Job, although the creation stories in Genesis 1 and 2 could perhaps be considered as reflecting more recent cultural attitudes to the older chaos-creation stories.
