No doubt about it. The jews basically conformed to the Egyptian monotheistic period religion of Aton. Akhenaton, the pharaoh actually changed all the scriptures to read that there is only one god. The jews took that to heart and when they got back they streted writing their own mythology with Adam and Eve and all that.

Aton was influenced by Amon who influenced Zeus(or Dias), which is why in latin the word for god is Deus(Zeus). All these religions are interconnected and very similar really.
