Was Lilith Fair?

Question

For religious folk who believe that God wrote the Bible and that there can't be contradictions of any kind in the text, these two stories were a big problem.

One very interesting Jewish commentarial tradition tries to reconcile the two stories by teaching that they describe the creation of two different women. The woman created with the man in Chapter One was called Lillith, and the woman described in the Eden narrative was, of course, Eve.

Lillith was, according to legend, the first wife of Adam. She had long, flowing red hair and was the first feminist! When Adam told her he was boss, she fought with him and ultimately flew away from him (OK, so we forgot to tell you, Lillith had wings!). Adam was so down in the dumps because Lillith had left him to make demon children at the Red Sea (it matched her hair) that he complained to God.

That's when God decided to make a second woman out of Adam's rib so she would get the idea that Adam was No. 1. Lillith definitely got bad press from this story, but what do you expect from a legend that's more than 4,000 years old?

Answer 1

no she's only fair with women. no boys allowed.

Answer 2

As far as Judaism is concerned, the book that describes Lilith is not part of the Bible nor was it ever considered part of the Bible thus any attempt to "reconcile" a contradiction has never been made since the source is irrelevant.

What I'm trying to say is that its a nice story and Sarah Mclaughlin can do what she wants with it, but it ain't Bible.

Answer 3

Nothing fair about Lilith.She was around before the earth was formed and She still is .I call her Satan

Answer 4

Where in the bible do you see someone named Lilith? Reread Genesis please!

Answer 5
