The Sumerian poem about Enten and Emesh seems illuminating to me in this regard. The farmer 'wins' the God's favor in the Mesopotamian version whereas the one practicing animal husbandry wins among the Hebrews - nomadic herders. So in a way couldn't it be seen as a retelling of the agricultural revolution allegory meant to glorify the relevant culture?
