Скачать или смотреть Was Lilith Really Adam’s First Wife? | History vs Myth

the world we live in, there are countless other worlds—hidden stories, forgotten beliefs, and ancient myths.
From time to time, I will take you on a journey through these worlds.
Today, we explore one of the most controversial and mysterious figures in religious history: Lilith.
Was Lilith really the first wife of Prophet Adam (peace be upon him)?
And if not, why did Jewish religious texts later portray her as such?
What was the real motive behind this narrative?
The Claim of the Talmud
According to Jewish traditions found in the Babylonian Talmud, Lilith was created from the same soil as Adam.
Unlike Eve, who was created from Adam’s rib, Lilith considered herself equal to Adam in every way.
Because of this perceived equality, she refused to obey Adam.
Eventually, she separated from him and—according to the Talmudic narrative—fell under the influence of Satan.
Over time, Lilith became Satan’s companion.
She developed demonic traits, grew wings, and began flying like evil spirits.
She was then portrayed as a force that misleads humanity, particularly targeting women, children, and young men.
What Do the Divine Scriptures Say?
The critical truth is this:
Lilith is not mentioned as Adam’s wife in:
The Torah
The Psalms
The Gospel
Or the Holy Quran
There is no authentic religious scripture that recognizes Lilith as Adam’s first wife.
So where did this story really come from?
Origins Before Judaism
The character of Lilith existed long before the Talmud.
Her earliest traces are found in ancient Mesopotamian civilizations, especially:
Sumerian Civilization (around 7000 years ago)
Located between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates, the Sumerians were highly advanced, literate, and possessed one of the earliest written languages in human history.
In Sumerian belief systems, a spirit known as “Lil” was associated with wind and storms.
Akkadian Civilization (around 5000 years ago)
The Akkadians adopted and modified many Sumerian concepts.
In their language, “Lilu” or “Lilitu” referred to an evil spirit or demon.
Lilitu was believed to:
Mislead humans toward sin
Attack pregnant women
Harm newborn children
Seduce young men and provoke immoral desires
Lilith in the Epic of Gilgamesh
Lilith is also mentioned in the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the oldest known literary works in human history.
In this epic, Lilith appears as Lilitu, a dark supernatural entity associated with forbidden forces.
Here, she is not a human, not a wife, and not a companion of Adam—but a malevolent spirit. #horror #scary #terrifyingtales
