If Eve was made from Adam's rib what was Lilith the first woman made from?

Answer 1

She was made from Adam's breasts. In the original story he had massive DDD hooters. It was just as well, it would have been a disastrous design flaw.

Answer 2

She was made from clay, just like Adam. She felt that she and Adam were equals (what a concept huh?).

for those of you who do not know who Lilith is:

The idea that Adam's had a wife prior to Eve may have developed from an interpretation of the Book of Genesis; while Genesis 2:22 describes God's creation of Eve from Adam's rib, an earlier passage, 1:27, already indicates that a woman had been made: "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." The earliest known reference to Lilith as Adam's first wife is in The Alphabet of Ben-Sira, written sometime between the 8th and 11th centuries and falsely attributed to the sage Ben Sira. The text places Lilith's creation after God's words in Genesis 2:18 that "it is not good for man to be alone". He forms Lilith out of the clay from which he made Adam, but the two bicker. Lilith claims that since she and Adam were created in the same way, they were equal, and she refuses to "lie below" him.

Answer 3

There was no Lilith. Eve was the only wife for Adam.

Answer 4

Could you be so kind as to point out where in the bible you get this information?
The only things I ever knew existed before Adam and Eve were perhaps "proto-types" as it were of what was to become humans.
The creative days weren't after all a 24 hour day. They could have been as long as 6,000 or 46,000 years each... I don't remember I wasn't there but... Bible scriptures and common sense are all I can go by.

Answer 5

Lilith was made first, and Adam was made from Lilith's rib.

Answer 6

Lilith was made from Frasier's neurosis. That was a good show, Frasier. Can you imagine Niles Crane on Cheers?

Answer 7

She was, like Adam, made from dirt, thus made equal to Adam because they were both made of the same thing in the same way.

Answer 8

Lillith was never in the abrahamic scriptures... I could be wrong, but I believe she was a story made up by the catholic church as an object lesson for women who dared to challenge male domination in religion.

That's why I always went to Lilltih Fair with my wife... bumholes don't go to Lillith Fair....

Answer 9

I don't know. If you're going to write a new Bible for yourself you just make up a story to go along with your insertion of Lilith into the Bible and insert it into your new Bible to. For me I'm going to stick with the Bible that God gave us.

Answer 10

I thought Eve was the first woman...did I miss something...
