Сильмариллион
The Bible and traditional Christian narrative also influenced "The Silmarillion". The conflict between Melkor and Eru Ilúvatar parallels that between Satan and God. Further, "The Silmarillion" tells of the creation and fall of the Elves, as "Genesis" tells of the creation and fall of Man. As with all of Tolkien's works, "The Silmarillion" allows room for later Christian history, and one version of Tolkien's drafts even has Finrod, a character in "The Silmarillion", speculating on the necessity of Eru Ilúvatar's eventual incarnation to save Mankind.
