Bibliography: Adam and Eve in Legend of the Jews by Louis Ginzberg and Genesis in the Bible by multiple prophets.
The Creation:
- a sacred day where no one is allowed to do any work
- the earth was a key ingredient in the creation of man
- A powerful being needed another being to appreciate the work they created, so the powerful being made 'man' (and because perhaps they were lonely)
-A realization that maybe the 'man' could become lonely too, so the powerful being created another being to bring the 'man' companionship
- allowed exclusive access to everything except one tree
- nudity is fun
The Fall:
- serpent represents wittiness and manipulation
- "Your eyes shall be open, and ye shall be gods." The powerful being keeps up a cascade that maybe they are not lonely and only wanted another being around to be worshipped and appreciated by the 'man' and the snake could represent another being that is jealous or has a dislike for the powerful being. The snake could tell the 'man' that if he eats the 'fruit' then his eyes will be open to the truth that the powerful being is not so powerful after all, but just another being looking to be accepted by others.
-nudity is not so good anymore, a dead giveaway that something is not right
- 'A mother of all living' things
- they are no longer ignorant
- a paradise is locked away, and no one will ever enter again
The Ideal Man:
- every trait similar to 'man' which were passed down to his offspring were their downfall
- I am laughing that 'Eve is to ape compared to Adam's handsome perfection'; its so sexist I cannot stop laughing at how ridiculous it is.
- 'so the soul sees, but cannot be seen'
- foretelling all the generations to come later
- thousand years to 'man' equals one day to 'powerful being'
- 'man' was given the opportunity name everything
- mankind owes all crafts to 'man'
The Fall of Satan:
- 'man' was envied of other powerful beings
- "How can I love this creature more than I can love you?"
- The powerful being cheated to show the 'man' favoritism
- 'Michael' bade 'Lucifer' to reconcile with the powerful being
- Love became twisted and corrupted
Lilith:
- a case of mistaken identity on the 'man's' part
- 'woman' was also made of earth and insisted upon her equality due to their identical origins
- 'man' complained - how am I not surprised.
- 'demon children' would be taken - a mother to all dark things instead of all living things
- influential over babes
Eve:
- powerful being and 'man' did not want the same thing to happen to 'man's' next companion so they took away origin equality so that could not be a valid excuse.
- 'chaste portion of the body'... so 'man's' companion is to be chaste...
- "Nevertheless, in spite of the great caution used, 'companion' has all the faults God tried to obviate - daughters of Zion were haughty and walked with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes; Sarah was an eavesdropper in her own tent, when the angel sale with Abraham, Miriam was a talebearer, accusing Moses, Rachel was vinous of her sister Leah; Eve put out her hand to take the forbidden fruit, and Dinah was a gadabout." I'm so tired of sexism.
- But you know what, Adam took the damn fruit too.
- perfumes is a must.... because boys do not stink of body order...
- because women brought death to the world... but Adam was just another idiot who accepted the damn fruit. But no, lets not share the blame.
Paradise:
- if the soul is worthy, the gates will open
- a 'mother' stream that quenches the entire earth
- 'man' had friendships with those in higher ranking than him, so being this could be beneficial if the powerful being becomes angry
The Fall of Man:
- his mental gifts result in his infidel, envy made him mediate and plan the death of 'man'
- The servant obviously forced the 'companion' against the tree and ate the fruit himself, this could be taken as a form of physical and mental abuse
- Hahaha, 'man' ate the fruit
- However, this reminds me of Romeo and Juliet when Eve thinks Adam will take another wife if she dies, so she is desperate for him to eat the fruit as well so they could die together.
- You can only find assistance where you found disgrace.
The Punishment:
- The angels gave Adam one of their days, meanings he would live for nine centuries of life and 70 years to his offspring.
- the reason snakes slither on their stomachs.
The Punishment, cont.:
- "The moon's light is obscured by night. Instead of shining like the sun, all the length of the day, she grows old quickly, and must be reborn and reborn, again and again."
(Lilith by John Maler Collier; from Web Source.)
As you can tell, I am a child of Lilith because I demand equality.
