About this book
Eve was not Adams first wife. That honor belongs to Lilith who was created as Adams equal. When he tried to dominate her she uttered Gods secret name and flew away. Lilith is mentioned in the Talmud elaborated on in the midrash and in the kabbalah whispered about in stories and passed down from mother to daughter. In this anthology a vivid provocative and enlightening sampling of Jewish womens written responses to the Lilith myth are offered. The editors have provided the space for contemporary women to link themselves to a tradition and participate in a sacred activity thereby infusing energy into Lilith and creating a new tradition.
