Whose the other one that god created aside from adam & eve?

Question

my teacher gave us that question as an assignment...does anyone know??

Answer 1

Lilith (or Lilit) is believed by some to have been the first woman: created before Eve. She was a strong woman and was created at the same time as Adam (so was equal, unlike Eve, who was created from Adam, and was therefore less equal), so mysoginistic religious writings portray her as a demon and feminist writings focus on her equality with Adam.

I would recommend checking out: http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/~humm/Topics/Lilith/ for more male oriented literary reviews.

Answer 2

Depending on which religion your teacher is basing this question, one answer could be Lilith....the first "first" woman; it could be the "second Adam" - a "savior" figure; it could be the "suffering servant"; it could be a "messianic" character....

these, just for starters....

However, some theologies/philosophies hold that the "Godhead" [note: this "godhead" is NOT the god of the bible, or any other "holy" book] radiated/emanated itself....and one of these emanations is the "god " of the bible...


The thinking goes something like....

Since the "godhead" is infinitely beyond human understanding and comprehension-ineffable-
the "godhead" he/she/it/"nothing"/"nothingness" ...the terms here are somewhat vague and esoteric.. contemplated itself...that "thought" became a separate aspect of the "godhead"

which, in turn, reflected upon itself....and its existence
from which emanated a third aspect of the "godhead"...
this third emanation/aspect of the "godhead" created everything....

so.....to make a long story longer....

The "godhead" ....."sorta" created what we call "God" and this aspect -"God"- created everything in existence.....
Be advised though...this is a knotty, sophisticated, esoteric explanation.....it may very well be beyond what your teacher had in mind

The easy answer would be
"That depends on which religion you are referring to"

Question:
I have heard that Lillith was actually the first woman, before Eve. Is this true?

Answer:
I have come across Lilith in literture twice, but never among my Jewish friends.

The first time that I read and connected with the person of Lilith was in a book called "Adiel" by Shlomo DuNour. I came across it while browsing at Barnes & Noble. The book won the Jerusalem Prize for Literature and was touted as "a re-telling of the Old Testament story of the Bible, from the Creation of Adam and Eve through the ten generations, culminating in Noah and the Flood." It seemed like a good gamble. It wasn't. The book depicts an angel named Lillith whose physical desire for Adam leads her to eliminate Eve. She employs the serpent by promising him sexual favors. This was a bad read and I thought that Lillith was a poor contrivance, although the name seemed vaguely familiar.

Not long after, we began reading CS Lewis' "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" out loud at dinner. In the chapter entitled "What Happened After Dinner" Mr. Beaver says that the white witch came from "your father Adam's first wife, her they called Lilith." I have read this book at least five times and never once picked up on this. CS Lewis was probably aware of this story from medieval literature and art. Why he chose to use it is beyond me. He may have retracted the position by providing a different origin for her in "The Magician's Nephew." But we have not got that far in our readings yet, so who knows.

Even with DuNour's book and the Lewis reference, I made no attempt to find out more, until I got your e-mail this morning. I guessed that Lilith would be part of Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism). This would explain why there was no discussion among my Jewish friends and why there are strong sexuual connotaions with the story. I was right on both counts.

1. Lilith arises as Adam's first wife because of the struggle some Rabbis had with the sixth day of creation-where God creates male and female-and Genesis 2 which implies Eve being created later. Lilith was created from the dust of the earth just as Adam was. She rebelled, spoke the Name of God, and disappeared.

2. She becomes a demon responsible for death in young children and the source of nocturnal emissions in men (the succubus).

I am leaving it with that. I find no real fascination with this story and now know more than I ever would have cared to know. The character of Adam is demeaned by these tales. There is no potential glory of man created in the image of God, which makes the fall so terrible. Adam and Lilith are both petty creatures.

Here is another one for you
Question:
Was the world populated through incest or did God create others besides Adam and Eve?

Answer:
While some understand the reference to Adam in Genesis to be a general reference to mankind as a whole or the creation of more than one couple, most conservative scholars reject such a view and understand the Genesis account to refer to the creation of a literal Adam and Eve as a single couple. This is further supported by the NT. For instance Paul understood the OT to refer to a literal Adam and Eve (see Rom. 5:14; 2 Cor. 11:3; 1 Tim. 2:12-13). He clearly understood the reference to Adam and Eve to the first man and woman.

As to incest, it was not considered a sin and was not prohibited for Adam and early man. If the race was to populate and fulfill the command of Gen. 1:28, there is little doubt that Adam’s sons and daughters had to have married their own sisters and brothers if the race was to populate the earth, but due to the purity of the race as evidenced also by the long length of life, there were no adverse effects as we see happening today. Gradually, as the effects of sin took its toll on the human race, marrying one’s own sister, etc., began to create hereditary problems.

Here is Ryrie’s comment on this issue from his book Basic Theology which I would highly recommend.

Though by many inerrantists the question of where Cain got his wife would not be considered a problem at all, this question is often used by those who try to demonstrate that the Bible is unreliable in what it claims. How could it claim that Adam and Eve were the first human beings who had two sons, one of whom murdered the other, and yet who produced a large race of people? Clearly, the Bible does teach that Adam and Eve were the first created human beings. The Lord affirmed this in Matthew 19:3-9. The genealogy of Christ is traced back to Adam (Luke 3:38). Jude 14 identifies Enoch as the seventh from Adam. This could hardly mean the seventh from “mankind,” an interpretation that would be necessary if Adam were not an individual as some claim. Clearly, Cain murdered Abel and yet many people were born. Where did Cain get his wife?

We know that Adam and Eve had other sons and daughters in addition to Abel, Cain, and Seth (Gen. 5:4), and if there was only one original family, then the first marriages had to be between brothers and sisters. Such marriages in the beginning were not harmful. Incest is dangerous because inherited mutant genes that produce deformed, sickly, or moronic children are more likely to find expression in children if those genes are carried by both parents. Certainly, Adam and Eve, coming from the creative hand of God, had no such mutant genes. Therefore, marriages between brothers and sisters, or nieces and nephews in the first and second generations following Adam and Eve would not have been dangerous.

Many, many generations later, by the time of Moses, incest was then prohibited in the Mosaic laws undoubtedly for two reasons: first, such mutations that caused deformity had accumulated to the point where such unions were genetically dangerous, and second, it was forbidden because of the licentious practices of the Egyptians and Canaanites and as a general protection against such in society. It should also be noted that in addition to the Bible most other legal codes refuse to sanction marriages of close relatives.

But here is another issue to consider. If one accepts the evolutionary hypothesis as to the origin of the human race, has that really relieved the issue of incest? Not unless you also propound the idea of the evolution of many pairs of beings, pre-human or whatever, at the same time. No matter what theory of the origin of the human race one may take, are we not driven to the conclusion that in the early history of the race, there was the need for intermarriage of the children of the same pair?
