Lilith was created from mud like Adam, and refused to be subservient to him, so Eve was made from Adam as a replacement
Where's the chapter and verse of Lilith being Adams wife?
I think it's a weak explanation for the apparant contradiction between the initial Yahwist creation narrative at Genesis 2:4 where Adam proceeded most animals and his "helper" and the subsequent 6-day Priestly narrative at 1:1 where man and woman were created at the same time on the sixth day.
Yes, the chronological order of the stories is reversed, according to most scholars. Lilith isn't in sacred scripture (unless you could words based on other forms of the origin of the name, but that's a stretch). She appears in post-second temple Jewish folklore (read: after Christianity branched off Judaism) if that's of any significance to you.
Okay good you know 😂 For an accurate Christian interpretation just read canonical church fathers and defer to church tradition. I'm Orthodox but Catholics would dismiss any interpretation applying any significance Lilith as well. Second Temple Judaism is just that. A lot of gnostic nonsense comes from it.
Now we're getting somewhere! But if God knows everything, how come he couldn't create the same thing consistently? How come he couldn't forsee that the first method wouldn't work?
