None! Most of the Biblical Laws were given through Noah who was the father of the Summerians, Akkadians, Hittites, Nubians, etc. Anthropologically we have discovered that some things are innately sensed to be just wrong (murder, rape, stealing, etc.,) because God has placed a witness in every person (a measure of faith and a conscience). Archaeologically as well as Anthropologically we have discovered that all peoples everywhere naturally believe in some form of God, gods, higher power or intelligent force or something. People are wired to be spiritual until they are taught otherwise. Thus...atheists are made not born!

The Bible however is unique in some respects because many statements made by God about the nature of Creation are confirmed by science and these were impossible to be known or conjectured by the ancients at the time of the writing. For example, that the Universe and thus time (which is a function of the Universe) had a beginning. That there were deep recesses in the bottom of the oceans or that there were paths or fountains through seas, or the entire hydraulic cycle, or that the earth is spherical (translated by the KJV as the word circle - Isaish 40) and is suspended in space on nothing, or that light moves, or that the earth and the Sun travel along a circuit, and on and on....

Even the resurrection story (claimed to be borrowed by some) is not borrowed - see Edwin Yamauchi's Easter: History, Hallucination, or Myth

Is the Bible significant to faiths other than Christianity?

A:The Old Testament of the Bible consists of the Jewish scriptures and is therefore significant to Judaism, but the New Testament is not. The Islamic holy book, the Koran (or Qur'an) parallels the Bible and Islam accepts much of the material in the Bible, although without the divinity of Jesus. Other religions do not regard the Bible as significant.

Why do other religions believe in Adam and Eve?

By historical chance, a number of religions arose over time, with roots in Judaism. The main three, Islam, Christianity and Judaism are commonly known as Abrahamic faiths because they share a belief in descent from the legendary patriarch Abraham, but this description could also apply to Mandaeanism and Sikhism. Each of these religions accepts as true much of what is the the Hebrew Bible, and there fore believes in Adam and Eve. Those religions that do not have their origins, directly or indirectly, in Judaism, do not believe in Adam and Eve.
