Lilith: Biblical Feminist or Diabolical Demon?

During the time of Creation, after Adam was created, God did not create Eve like we think God did. God created Lilith, Adam's first wife. The story of Lilith begins in the Garden of Eden, and ends in tragedy and fear as she becomes demonized.
Join Rachael as she explains the story through a text called the "Alphabeta of Ben Sira" and learn how a fight with Adam on dominance and equality turns her into a demon.

The narrative of the creation of Adam and Eve is a story that we all learn when we are young. But If you look closer at the text and the meaning behind some key words and phrases, you realize the story of Eve is a little more complicated than being created from one rib. It all begins with a mis-translation and then you see the creation of Eve from Adam is not what you thought it was.
