I was checking out the bible after seeing a show on it on Penn and Teller: Bullshit, and another documentart on the real first woman in the bible. In Exodus 1:27 it says "So God created man in his own image of God, Hecreatedhim; Man and Woman he created them" then on Exodus 2:20 - 23 it says 2:20 So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the sir and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him. 21: And lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam and he slept, and he took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh in its place. 22: then the rib which the lord god had taken he made women\\an and he brought her to theman. 23: And Adam said "This is now my flesh of my flesh. She shall be called woman because she was taken out of man"
Now I'm perplexed by this either there were two authors to these first two chapters of the bible or there were two women, the first being Lilith, the woman mentioned in the documentary I saw. Your thoughts?
