Opis

The legend of Lilith is undoubtedly the most fantastic of all ancient rabbinic myths. According to lore, God created her from dust alongside Adam. However, Lilith was a failed mate. She was not animated by the breath of God like Adam. Rather she was preemptively animated by a Satanic mist which erupted from the ground. Lilith rebelled against Adam and became the infamous Serpent who deceived Eve and caused Adam to fall. Therefore, God established eternal enmity between the Serpent Lilith and Eve and between their seed. Liliths seed would bruise the heel of Eves promised seed, Messiah, but Eves seed would revive to crush Liliths head. This book reveals 23 Biblical evidences that prompted ancient rabbis to conclude the various elements of Liliths legend. It also explains how her legend is completely consistent with traditional Judaic / Christian teachings on the Bibles redemptive message. Her legend solves many ancient Biblical mysteries, such as why the Serpent bears seed like Eve.
