what can you tell me about her? thanks!

Answer 1

she refused the recumbant sexual position benaeth adam, and he tried to compel her by force, so she spake the secret name of god and rose up and flew away to the banks of the red sea where she coupled with demons and bore thousands of demon children. God sent three angels to bring her back to adam, savey sansevy and smengeloff, but she made a deal with them instead and to this day their names can be used to banish her. she has hair red as a rose and her adornments number forty, minus one, around her neck she wears all the jewels of the orient. It is the mystery of these adornments that she appears to have arms and legs, for god cut off her arms and legs after she tempted eve. She has two children that she came to have by herself, a daughter, also named lilith with dark hair who is the queen and mother of all djinn and a son who is known only as the "flame faced prince" she arose bteween adam and eve because adam had tried to couple with eve at the time of her menstrual impurity and from the filth formed of the blasphemous union she arose and fertilized eve before adam, thus concieving cain--want to know more?- e-mail me

Answer 2

The story I always heard was that she was the first woman made by God as Adam's mate. She refused to be subservient to Adam, so Adam complained to God. God had a word with Lilith, telling her it was her duty to be submissive to Adam, but Lilith had somehow learned God's true name, which gave her the power to defy him and survive. She refused to obey, speaking God's name aloud, then left, disappearing into the wilderness.

Your question made me wonder how mythically accurate the story was, so I did a little online research. This site tells of many versions of stories about Lilith, none of which match the one I remember, exactly, but interesting nonetheless.

Answer 3

Lilith was made from the earth like Adam. For this reason she felt she was equal and did not have to take the submissive position in sex. She was expelled from the Garden for this reason.

From this point the stories become wide and varied. For example:

After she left, she took up with demons and gave birth to various hellspawn, jinns, etc.

Lilith is the first wife of Adam and mother of all demons in the fictional setting called the World of Darkness, created by White Wolf Game Studio. She also seduced Jehovah, and sheltered Caine after his exile to the Land of Nod, helping him become the first vampire on earth. However, Lilith died when Caine stabbed her to death with a spear.

Answer 5

i'm a Muslim, yet i develop into raised contained in the Church (reverted to Islam). that's better of a reaction to Hairypotto. Genesis " 27 So God created mankind in his personal photo, in only like God he created them; male and woman he created them. 28 God blessed them and stated to them, “Be fruitful and boost in form; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish contained in the sea and the birds contained in the sky and over each and every residing creature that strikes on the floor.” Says no longer some thing about Lilith there. no longer some thing in any respect. in actuality, searching through my Bible, i won't be able to discover some thing with regard to a "Lilith" everywhere. female comes from guy. i imagine we are only as equivalent because with out our wombs, adult men might want to no longer multiply and Adam might want to have finally disenchanted Allah (swt) and been removed from the backyard on his personal with out babies to bypass on his bloodline. Lilith is a few heathen fable.

Answer 6

Lilith the Hebrew name for Innana, a popular goddess in ancient Mesopotamian society. She was intergrated into Hebrew religious teachings as an example of how women are inferiour to men. In the Old Testament, Lilith is banished from Eden for refusing to be subjugated by Adam during intercourse.

Answer 7

A very rare report on Adams of the Universe, showing some
21,000 households under the Deity of Heaven also has their
wives investments listings. Here Lilith of biblical proportion is
in 3 categories, the name being a very old name of Italian
swiss women of the border stars of the Venus planets eden.
Another example the Lilith of star trek stories coming from a
name in earliest Olympian understudies of the goddesses of
Vulcan legends of war and exploration. Finally the later bible
story of Lilith being the daughter of Zeus especially charming
in music and a legend that Adam would certainly be wise to
chose her for her peaceful children and presence.

Answer 8

You ask About Adam's FIRST wife, Lilifth??? There was no first wife called by that name. Eve was his only, and first wife. However, the only reseach I found as related to the Bible under "Lilith". Found at Isaiah 34:14 [a Hebrew: li·lith´].

Some scholars believe the term li·lith´, used at Isaiah 34:14 as among the creatures haunting Edom’s ruins, applies to some type of owl. The name is said to be used today “for Strix, the tawny owl.” (The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible, edited by G. A. Buttrick, 1962, Vol. 2, p. 252)

Consider also:

A creature appearing in the description of Edom’s utter desolation and of the things inhabiting its ruins. (Isa 34:14) The Hebrew word has been variously translated as “screech owl” (KJ), “night-monster” (AS), “nightjar” (NE, NW), and “night hag” (RS), while The Jerusalem Bible prefers simply to transliterate the name as “Lilith.”

Many scholars endeavor to show that the Hebrew term is a loanword from ancient Sumerian and Akkadian and that it derives from the name of a mythological female demon of the air (Lilitu). Professor G. R. Driver, however, considers the Hebrew word (li·lith´) to derive from a root word denoting “every kind of twisting motion or twisted object,” even as the Hebrew word la´yil (or lai´lah), meaning “night,” suggests a “wrapping itself round or enfolding the earth.” Such derivation of li·lith´, he suggests, may likely point to the nightjar as both a nocturnal feeding bird and one noted for its rapid twisting and turning flight as it pursues moths, beetles, and other night-flying insects. As quoted by Driver, Tristram, the naturalist, described the nightjar as “becoming very active towards dusk, when they hawk about at great speed and with intricate turnings after their food.”—Palestine Exploration Quarterly, London, 1959, pp. 55, 56.

The nightjar is almost 30 cm (12 in.) in length with a wingspan of 50 cm (20 in.) or more; its plumage resembles the owl’s, being soft and delicately mottled with gray and brown. The soft wing feathers allow for noiseless flight. Its large mouth is evidently the reason for its also being called the goatsucker, an ancient legend holding that the bird sucked the milk of goats.

As to the likelihood of such a bird being found in the arid region of Edom, certain varieties of this bird are known to inhabit waste places. An Egyptian nightjar (Caprimulgus aegyptius) lives almost exclusively in the desert, occupying acacia groves and tamarisk bushes and seeking its food in twilight. Another (Caprimulgus nubicus) is found in desert fringes between Jericho and the Red Sea, hence in regions like that of Edom.

Answer 9

Lilith is a myth. The myth goes that Lilith was created first and then either destroyed or kept as a lesser wife. however it's not true. Part of the myth also was that she was rejected as an appropriate spouse because she would only have sex with her on top. Rubbish.

Answer 10

Adam's only wife was Eve. he never had any other wife. if this was true it would of been in the bible but since it is not in the bible then it is not true. God took Adam's rib and made his wife and he names her Eve.
