Who was Adams first wife?

Answer 1

I don't know if they were married, but there was Lillith before Eve.

The story insinuates that lilith was made of the same stuff as adam. As a result, she was dominant. Adam didn't like that (nor that she wanted to be on top during sex) so adam bitched to god about it and got lillith thrown out of eden. Adam requested a better female that was made out of a PART, the rib, of adam. A "lesser" being. It is in the jewish bible, omitted from the christian one.

Later came eve.

Lilith became scorned and appeared many times in the bible after that eating first borns and stuff. (Hence the saying 'hell hath no fury than a woman scorned')

Also that is the first account of gender bias which has been pressed through generations of a male dominated world.

Lilith was the first feminist. It was propaganda that she was a demon. Hence the Women's jewish magazine called lilith, and lilith fair etc. Those people understand that. It is just a story used to keep women in their place.

Answer 2

A lot of historians and mythology experts believe that Lillith was adams first wife, but biblically Eve was Adams only wife.

*******************************************************

There are un-Biblical legends that Adam had a wife before Eve who was named Lilith. The legends vary significantly, but they all essentially agree that Lilith left Adam because she did not want to submit to him. According to the legends, Lilith was an evil, wicked woman who committed adultery with Satan and produced a race of evil creatures. None of this is true. There is no Biblical basis whatsoever for these concepts. There is no one in the Bible named Lilith. Genesis chapter 1 does not record the creation of Lilith with Genesis chapter 2 recording the creation of Eve. Rather, Genesis chapter 2 is a "closer look" at the creation of Adam and Eve as recorded in Genesis chapter 1. The Bible specifically says that Adam and Eve were the first human beings ever created (Genesis 1:26-28; 2:18-25). This "Lilith" myth is popular in some radical feminist movements because Lilith is an example of a woman refusing to submit to male headship.

Answer 3

Eve was Adams wife.

Answer 4

Yep they say it was supposed to be Lillith. She was supposed to be all corrupt or something. That's not biblical of course since Eve was supposed to be taken right from Adams rib.

Apparently Lilith was one of the evil people that inhabited the earth. This is not popular belief. Look it up in google, as a matter of fact I will.

or another one

When God created Adam, he was lonely, so God created Lilith from the same dust from which Adam was molded. But they quarrelled; Adam [the proverbial domineering male] wished to rule over Lilith. But Lilith [a militant feminist] was also proud and willful, claiming equality with Adam because she was created from the same dust. She left Adam and fled the Garden. God sent three angels in pursuit of Lilith. They caught
her and ordered her to return to Adam. She refused, and said that she would henceforth weaken and kill little children, infants and babes. The angels overpowered her, and she promised that if the mother hung an amulet over the baby bearing the names of the three angels, she would stay away from that home. So they let her go, and God created Eve to be Adam's mate [created from Adam's rib, so that she couldn't claim equality]. And ever since, Lilith
flies around the world, howling her hatred of mankind through the night, and vowing vengeance because of the shabby treatment she had received from Adam. She is also called "The Howling One."

Answer 5

Eve was Adam's first and last Wife his one and only one they had Sons and Daughters who went on to become our ancestors

Answer 6

In the Christian tradition Eve was Adams 1st wife.

In Judaic tradition, Lilith was Adams 1st wife. She was cast out and was replaced by Eve.

Answer 7

If you are speaking of the Adam mentioned in the Bible, his wifes name was Eve (she was his only wife) and they had two sons, Cain and Able.

He was never married to a woman named Lillith, she was a mythical person and she was mainly thought to be of pagan origin.

Eve

Answer 9

Adam didn't have a wife because Adam didn't exist. Quit trying to disprove the Bible by pointing out its inaccuracies. Just deny the premise.

Answer 10

Only wife Eve.

Not Lilith that's a fallacy taught.
