Naomba kufahamu, kati ya Lilith na Eva ama Hawa ni nani alikua mke wa kwanza wa Adam.
Biblia inasema Eva ndio mke wa Adam pekee na kwamba ametoka kwenye ubavu wake lakini vitabu vya kiyahudi vinasema Lilith ndio alikua mke wa kwanza wa Adam kabla hawajagombana na Adam kuachana.
Kwa msingi huo, ukifuata mtiririko wa historia, vitabu vya kiyahudi vimeitangulia biblia hivyo vinnaweza kua na historia nzuri zaidi ya Adam kuliko Biblia.
Swali, kwa nini Lilith hazungumziwi kwenye Biblia kwamba alikua ndio mke wa kwanza wa Adam kabla ya Eva na badala yake Biblia inamzingumzia Eva peke yake?
