The Uncertain Origins of Lilith

This is a response to Trae Dorn's claims on their podcast and on Tiktok about the origins of Lilith, which I believe to be wrong. For context, listen to their podcast and read/watch their Tiktoks and Tumblr posts.

My base claim here is that there is a lot of scholarly discourse as to the origins of Lilith, whether she was, in Judaism, originally a singular figure or just a type of spirit, and whether the idea of her as a singular figure is exclusive to Judaism.

Furthermore, we absolutely can't just say all of this "misinformation" originated on Tiktok. Tiktok, like old Tumblr, is of course an absolute mess spiritually. Tumblr's the home of Mesperyian, and numerous cults have originated on Tiktok. So I'm not trying to defend Tiktok here, I'm just against saying with certainty that nobody but Jewish people may believe in her. And I mean to show evidence of older origins of people believing her to be a separate goddess.

First of all, it's important to note that Jewish mythology does have its own night spirits syncretous with "lilu", Lilin (Hebrew: לילין) that are mentioned in the Syriac Apocalypse of Baruch, with these annotations by translator R.H. Charles. (read original)

Lelioto. These are the Lilin (לילין)) from the singular Lilith לִילִית. Male and female demons named Lil and Lilit belong to Assyrian and Babylonian demonology. They were thought, as were also the Lilin (Shabbath, 1516), to attack men and women in their sleep (Lenormant, La Magie, p. 36). The Lilith, or night demon, is mentioned in Isa. xxxiv. 14, along with the satyr 'שָׂעַיר The Lilin, according to the Talmud, were female demons corresponding to the Shedim or male demons. They were partly the offspring (Erub, 18b ; Beresh, 42) of Adam and Lilith, Adam's first wife, a demon, and partly wore derived from the generation that God dispersed (Gen. xi.), for God (Jalkut Shim., Beresh. 62) transformed that generation into Shedim, Ruchin, and Lilin. These Lilin inhabited desert places. They were said to kill children. They have been compared with the Lamiæ and Striges ; όνοκένταυροι. is the LXX. rendering of the word in Isa. xxxiv. 14.

However, this 1930 magazine article by Maximilian Rudwin says "The Hebrew word lilin is not a true plural of lilith. We would expect lilitim or lilitos as a plural. The word is in reality the masculine counterpart of lilith and denotes a male night-monster." Which makes it seem like this isn't plural and is a singular male deity.

What these two sources assert checks out with this Jewish Encyclopedia entry on the same source text.

Of the three Assyrian demons Lilu, Lilit, and Ardat Lilit, the second is referred to in Isa. xxxiv. 14. Schrader ("Jahrb. für Protestantische Theologie," i. 128) takes Lilith to be a goddess of the night; she is said to have been worshiped by the Jewish exiles in Babylon (Levy, in "Z. D. M. G." ix. 470, 484). Sayce ("Hibbert Lectures," pp. 145 et seq.), Fossey ("La Magie Assyrienne," pp. 37 et seq.), and others think that "Lilith" is not connected with the Hebrew "layil" (night), but that it is the name of a demon of the storm, and this view is supported by the cuneiform inscriptions quoted by them.

Cited are Emil G. Hirsch, Solomon Schechter, and Ludwig Blau, all of whom are respected authorities on the subject. Lilu, Lilit, and Ardat Lilit are apparently separate beings, Lilit being a goddess of the night.

And what of the protective prayer bowls of Sassanid Babylon? Lilit and Lilith, separate individual males and female demons, apparently suddenly becoming separate beings during Jewish exile in Babylon. But at this point, they don't seem to have been known as the being who wed Adam before Eve, so why did nearly every Jewish house have one of these prayer bowls, and did the idea spring up out of nowhere? And, if Lilith is purely Jewish, why did gentile Babylonians also ward her off with prayer bowls?

All this to say, we can't even definitively say they were only a class of beings and never individual deities.

As you know, it's very debated within Judaism whether Lilith as a singular entity, as the first wife of Adam even exists. Rabbis Maimonides (1138–1204) and Menachem Meiri (1249–1315) have said she does not. Certainly, there is a precedent of lilin as some type of supernatural entity in Judaism, but that's all we can say for sure.

Also, this 1919 copy of Pirke Aboth, equates the demons "mazzikin" with shedim and lilin, and acknowledges their origin as Assyrio-Babylonian. "this is the most general term for them, though various other grades of them are mentioned in the Talmud and kindred writings : shedim = "evil genii," an Assyrio-Bab. loan-word ; lilin, probably evil spirits of the night, also from the Assyrio-Bab."

What do we know for sure? We know the textual basis from which the notion of Lilith as a wife of Adam supposedly arose. We know that rabbis, as a whole, (of course) do not agree on whether this is a strong enough textual basis, or if this is something picked up by Jewish exiles in Babylon. We cannot say if Lilith, as an individual deity, existed in Mesopotamian mythology.

Before we get into the Epic of Gilgamesh business, I've got to say, I take issue with the confidence with which you make these assertions. You admit you are not a scholar. Yet you just keep saying "clearly" when it's not at all clear.

You say ki-sikil-lil-la-ke is totally unlike Jewish Lilith, which is verifiably false. Again, from the Jewish Encyclopedia:

"The superstitions regarding her and her nefarious doings were, with other superstitions, disseminated more and more among the mass of the Jewish people. She becomes a nocturnal demon, flying about in the form of a night-owl and stealing children.."

Lilith is capable of turning into a night bird in many variations of the legend. Yet you sort of derisively mock the interpretation of ki-sikil-lil-la-ke being Lilith, saying it "could literally mean owl", as if that's supposed to disprove anything. In Isaiah 34, a prophecy regarding the fate of Edom, the name "lilith" is associated with owls.

34:14 "And shall-meet wildcats with jackals the goat he-calls his- fellow lilit (lilith) she-rests and she-finds rest 34:15 there she-shall-nest the great-owl, and she-lays-(eggs), and she-hatches, and she-gathers under her-shadow: hawks [kites, gledes] also they-gather, every one with its mate.

There's also Songs of the Sage. For more on Lilith and the association with owls and other night birds, this bit on Wikipedia provides a nice directory.

In the "Inanna and the Huluppu Tree", which is where the "lilitu" is purported to have first verifiably appeared, the young goddess Inanna caring for the Huluppu tree in her garden. She cries, because a Zu bird, and serpent "who knows no charm", and a lilutu have made the tree their home. Her brother Gilgamesh then slays the serpent, and the lilitu and the Zu bird flee. In a hymn about the origins of Inanna, she is taken to Kur (the Sumerian underworld) to taste the fruit of a tree that grows there, which reveals to her all the secrets of sex.

This parallels 13th century-onward Jewish (and Christian) tellings of Lilith

According to the Revelations of St. John, it was Samael or Satan, who, disguised as a serpent, tempted Eve to disobey the Lord by eating of the forbidden fruit and thus brought upon herself and her husband the wrath of their Creator. A certain Christian tradition identifies the serpent of the Garden of Eden not with Samael or Satan but with Lilith, who thus was the main instigator in the fall of our common ancestors. Dante Gabriel Rossetti, in his famous poem "Eden Bower," follows this later tradition in ascribing the temptation in Eden to this serpent woman Lilith. (source)

In Mandaeism, she's considered to represent the branches of a tree with other figures that form other parts of the tree, which you can see in the (honestly difficult to find and download) A Charm against Demons of Time by Christa Müller-Kessler. Lilith or liliths are referenced in Ginza Rabba and Qolasta as residing in the World of Darkness.

In Lilith's Cave- Jewish Tales of the Supernatural compiled by Howard Schwartz, you can see that accounts of Lilith as Asmodeus' Queen grew to include legends about another world, a world which existed side by side with this one. Yenne Velt is Yiddish for this described "Other World".

And as you well know, Lilith is commonly associated with sex. All these parallels are apparent.

Did Kramer "fuck up"? Scholars do not know. Sure, some contest it, but that isn't thewidely held opinion. You constantly calling it a "mistranslation" is giving me hives. Just stop! Why do you keep calling it a mistranslation?

(Regarding the Burney relief, I'm not going to try and claim that's Lilith. It could be, it fits- wings, the animals, the connection to Inanna- but there's just no evidence, and without evidence, trying to claim anything is ridiculous.)

Something else that's going to give me scurvy is you insisting it wasn't a singular goddess, but a whole class of beings; as if it cannot have been both! Religion and history are funny like that- ideas change. Beelzebub, once god of the Philistines, becomes a demon, and then Satan himself. Pegasus is one being, yet we call every winged horse a pegasus. Zeus and Hades- are they brothers, or are they different aspects of the same deity? Is Persephone the same as Despoina? Who are her parents? Are the Eumenides born of Ouranos' blood, or are they daughters of Hades and Nyx, Hades and Persephone, Euronymè and Cronus, or Euronymè and Phorkys? Are gorgons a type of being, or are Stheno, Euryale, and Medusa the only ones, and "gorgon" is just their title?

Lastly.. it's just weird how you talk about people who worship Lilith as a goddess and their experiences. You're like "the thing called Lilith is not a goddess, so if you are dealing with what you believe to be a goddess either they are not Lilith... maybe it's not a goddess, maybe... you've got all these legends about things called Lilitu.. just saying", implying it to be some nefarious pretender. What is a goddess? What is a demon? Who are you to say?

And of course, yes, I agree, always be careful when dealing with the religion of real life people. Don't bother Jewish people about this, they get enough trouble. But there will never be clear answers to these questions of faith. Your god might be somebody's demon. I see a lot of people who work with Lucifer. Just be kind. And look at your primary sources.

Also look at this excellent video by Dr. Justin Sledge on the subject.

ZOHAR AND LILITH:

"References to Lilith in the Zohar include the following:

She roams at night, and goes all about the world and makes sport with men and causes them to emit seed. In every place where a man sleeps alone in a house, she visits him and grabs him and attaches herself to him and has her desire from him, and bears from him.

And she also afflicts him with sickness, and he knows it not, and all this takes place when the moon is on the wane.

This passage may be related to the mention of Lilith in Talmud Shabbath 151b (see above), and also to Talmud Eruvin 18b where nocturnal emissions are connected with the begettal of demons.

According to Rapahel Patai, older sources state clearly that after Lilith's Red Sea sojourn (mentioned also in Louis Ginzberg's Legends of the Jews), she returned to Adam and begat children from him by forcing herself upon him.

Before doing so, she attaches herself to Cain and bears him numerous spirits and demons.

In the Zohar, however, Lilith is said to have succeeded in begetting offspring from Adam even during their short-lived sexual experience.

Lilith leaves Adam in Eden, as she is not a suitable helpmate for him.

Gershom Scholem proposes that the author of the Zohar, Rabbi Moses de Leon, was aware of both the folk tradition of Lilith and another conflicting version, possibly older.

The Zohar adds further that two female spirits instead of one, Lilith and Naamah, desired Adam and seduced him.

The issue of these unions were demons and spirits called "the plagues of humankind", and the usual added explanation was that it was through Adam's own sin that Lilith overcame him against his will.

17th-century Hebrew magical amulets

Medieval Hebrew amulet intended to protect a mother and her child from Lilith (see picture)

A copy of Jean de Pauly's translation of the Zohar in the Ritman Library contains an inserted late 17th century printed Hebrew sheet for use in magical amulets where the prophet Elijah confronts Lilith.

The sheet contains two texts within borders, which are amulets, one for a male ('lazakhar'), the other one for a female ('lanekevah').

The invocations mention Adam, Eve and Lilith, 'Chavah Rishonah' (the first Eve, who is identical with Lilith), also devils or angels:

Sanoy, Sansinoy, Smangeluf, Shmari'el (the guardian) and Hasdi'el (the merciful).

A few lines in Yiddish are followed by the dialogue between the prophet Elijah and Lilith when he met her with her host of demons to kill the mother and take her new-born child ('to drink her blood, suck her bones and eat her flesh'). She tells Elijah that she will lose her power if someone uses her secret names, which she reveals at the end: lilith, abitu, abizu, hakash, avers hikpodu, ayalu, matrota ...

In other amulets, probably informed by The Alphabet of Ben-Sira, she is Adam's first wife. (Yalqut Reubeni, Zohar 1:34b, 3:19

Charles Richardson's dictionary portion of the Encyclopædia Metropolitana appends to his etymological discussion of lullaby "a [manuscript] note written in a copy of Skinner" [i.e. Stephen Skinner's 1671 Etymologicon Linguæ Anglicanæ], which asserts that the word lullaby originates from Lillu abi abi, a Hebrew incantation meaning "Lilith begone" recited by Jewish mothers over an infant's cradle.

Richardson did not endorse the theory and modern lexicographers consider it a false etymology."- Adam van norden

Posted by Dorit Revitch on July 07, 2022

The “Holy Temple”- in Hebrew, Beit Hamikdash was a large (approximately football-stadium-sized), multi-level, indoor-outdoor structure that was and spiritually still is the nucleus of Judaism. Its most sacred site. It stood atop Jerusalem’s Mount Moriah.

The First Temple called Solomon's Temple was built in 957 BCE and was destroyed by the Babylonians in 587 or 586 BCE.

The second Temple was completed in 515 BCE and was destroyed by the Romans during the Siege of Jerusalem in the year 70 CE.

Many projects to build a Third Temple have not yet come to fruition, but the Temple still features prominently in Orthodox and Conservative Jewish services alike.

Today, to our sorrow, the Temple Mount is the site of the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

But with all that, we the Jewish people are yearning and praying and remembering the Holy Temple or Beit Hamikdash, or Beit-Habchira. Why? Why do we dwell on something that existed over 2000 years ago?

The Holy Temple of Jerusalem or as we will call it here The Holy Temple was, is, and will always be the center of Jewish life all over the world.

But let us first look at some Historical interesting events, no I will not bore you with the whole history I promise.

We all know what the holiday of Hanukkah is, or so we think, we know it as this holiday you get gifts every day for 8 days, and Hanukkah Gelt, and the dreidel.

But what is really the story of Hanukkah? It is the story of the Holy Temple.

According to Jewish sources, another demolition of the Temple (apart from the two mentioned above) was somehow avoided in 332 BCE when the Jews refused to acknowledge the self-deification of Alexander the Great of Macedonia, but Alexander was somehow convinced at the last minute by smart diplomacy and flattery. After the death of Alexander on 323 BCE, and the dismembering of his empire, the Ptolemies came to rule over Judea and the Temple. Under the Ptolemies, the Jews were given many civil liberties and lived content under their rule. However, when the Ptolemaic army was defeated by Antiochus in 200 BCE, this friendly policy changed. Antiochus wanted to convert the Jews to Hellenism and attempted to make the Holy Temple into the Greek Pantheon. Moreover, a rebellion started and was brutally crushed, but no further action by Antiochus was taken, and when Antiochus died in 187 BCE, his son was his successor Sleucus IV Philopator .

However, his policies never took effect in Judea, since he was assassinated the year after his crowning, it was Antiivhus IV Epiphanes that succeeded his older brother to the throne and immediately adopted his father's previous policy of universal Hellenisation. The Jews rebelled again and Antiochus, in a rage, retaliated in force. Considering the previous episodes of discontent, the Jews became even more upset when the religious observances of Shabbath and Circumcision were officially outlawed. When Antiochus erected a statue of Zeus in the Temple and Hellenic priests began sacrificing pigs (the usual sacrifice offered to Greek Gods of the Hellenic religion), the anger of the Jewish people began to spiral. When a Greek official ordered a Jewish priest to perform a Hellenic sacrifice, the priest – Mattathias (Mathityahu in Hebrew) killed him. In 167 BCE, the Jews followed and went behind Mattathias and his five sons to fight, they won their freedom from the Seleucid authority. Mattathias' son Judah the Macabee re-dedicated the temple in 165 BCE and the Jews celebrate this event to this day as the central theme of the non-biblical festival of Hanukkah. The temple was rededicated under Judah Maccabee in 164 BCE.

Around 20 BCE, the building was renovated and expanded by Herod the Great and became known as Herod’s Temple. It was destroyed 90 years later by the Romans in 70 CE.

During the Bar Kokhba Revolt against the Romans in 132–135 CE, Simon Bar- Kokhba and Rabi Akiva wanted to rebuild the Temple, but bar Kokhba's revolt failed, and the Jews were banned from Jerusalem, by the Roman Empire, except on Tisha B’Av. Julian the Emperor allowed the Temple to be rebuilt, but the Earthquake of Galilee in 363 ended all attempts ever since.

After the Muslim conquest of Jerusalem in the 7th century, Umayyad Caliph Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan ordered the construction of an Islamic shrine, the Dome of the Rock, on the Temple Mount. The shrine has stood on the mount since 691 CE; the al-Aqsa Mosque, from roughly the same period, also stands in what used to be the Temple courtyard.

Jordan occupied East Jerusalem and the Temple Mount immediately following Israel's declaration of independence on May 14, 1948. In 1967 during the Six-Day War, Temple Mount, along with the entire Old City of Jerusalem, was captured from Jordan by Israel, allowing Jews once again to visit the holy site.

The iconic image of Israeli soldiers shortly after

the capture of the Wall during the Six-Day War

Today the Jewish Holy Site is the remains of the walls of the Holly temple which is the Wailing Wall / the Western Wall, / Hakotel in Hebrew.

Even though the Muslims claim that the Temple mount was always theirs and they were first, and the stone in the center of the Omar Shrine is where Abraham was going to Sacrifice Izaak, the Jewish people will always claim, as we should, to have the first right on the Moriah Mountain or as we call it now temple mount, there are more than enough archaeological evidence backing up this fact.

The Temple’s centrality to Jewish existence is reflected in the fact that many of the Jewish mitzvot are Temple-related: daily and weekly offerings; holiday pilgrimages and offerings; personal, voluntary, and obligatory offerings; qualifying criteria for the Kohanim and Levites; Temple rituals; and the dos and don’ts for all the above. There are around 180 mitzvot (good deeds) out of a total of 613 related to the Holy Temple.

When the Temple stood, G_D was real to everyone. The Holy Temple was a place of spirituality, a place where you can feel and sense G_D’s presence. A place that when you wanted to be close to G_D you went to Jerusalem to find Him at His Temple. The Temple was a symbol of G_D and all the things that “G_D” means responsibility, morality, ethics, love, compassion, and humility. It was a place where one found spirituality:

You didn’t have to be Jewish to go to the Temple; kings and peasants from every country and culture traveled long distances just to experience it all. The Temple was the single most important structure in society, offering structure to society. Then it was destroyed.

Since the destruction of the Temple, G_D was removed from its geographic location and placed itself within us. Instead of traveling to Jerusalem, G_D wants us to find Him in our inner Jerusalem.

At the times of the Temple, G_D was in principle reaching down to His world, and now in the times of our exile, it is us reaching up, from within that world back to G_D.

When you go and visit the Western Wall for the first time, please put both your hands on its stones and just close your eyes and you feel it, you feel the Holiness of the place, you feel the presence of G_D right there. If you ever doubted G_D’s presence you will know it exists when you are at Temple mount at the Kotel.

This is the place that G_D chose for us to feel its presence, it is the place where we come to celebrate and mourn, we come to request and pray for others and ourselves, just the same as it was over 2000 years ago.

The Holy Temple with its very Symbolic history is the History of the Jewish people. It’s our core existence our past and our future, our roots are there and our strength as a nation comes from there. Our unity comes from Traditions and Mitzvot that exist for thousands and hundreds of years.

And that is where we are all connected, any Jew worldwide knows that the Holy Temple was and will be rebuilt in Jerusalem.

That’s why we mourn the fall of the holy temple on Tisha B’Av, which is the culmination of the Three Weeks, a period during which we mourn and mark the destruction of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem.

These days usually fall on the months of July and August.

So as you can see The Holy Temple has a big influence on Jewish lives, and the connection of the Jewish people to the Holy Temple is our Spiritual connection to our G_D All-Mighty.

Next Year in Jerusalem!

Journal d'un photographe / Gaza / dernier repas avant le départ définitif de Gush Katif

Extraits de mon journal

Jeudi 11 août.

Manifestation anti-désengagement à Tel Aviv. Succès mitigé. Les opposants au retrait savent qu’ils ont perdu la partie.

Confusion la plus totale sur les possibilités de rester après le 14 à minuit.

Denise m’appelle tous les soirs. J’ai eu Léo au téléphone. Il me demande de signaler à Denise qu’il sait faire les quiches. Je m’ennuie d’eux.

23.45. Tous les restaurants du centre-ville à Jérusalem sont pleins à craquer. Focaccia bar. Il n’y a que des jeunes autour de moi. La tension est tombée depuis que les mouvements Hamas et le Djihad islamique ont accepté de respecter une trêve (ils ont accepté uniquement pendant la période du retrait) demandée par Abou Mazen. Comme quoi !

Une demi-bouteille de Gamla cabernet Sauvignon et je suis plus léger.

Vendredi 12 août.

J’ai des cernes sous mes yeux. C’est la première fois de ma vie que je le remarque.

J’ai rêvé de mon père.

Il était à côté de moi. Je lui ai demandé ce qu’il faisait là. "Tu es mort ». Il a paru surpris. Nous étions dans un grand bâtiment un peu démoli. Dans un recoin, il y avait comme une gazinière d’où sortait une flamme de gaz qui servait de chauffage.

Je vais à Rafiah Yam* chez Socrate qui finit de faire ses bagages.

Samedi 13 août.

J’aide Socrate à charger sa voiture dans l’espoir de le voir partir avant la tombée de la nuit pour que je puisse photographier son départ. Mais Brigitte, sa femme, veut partir après la fin du Shabbath.

Lorsqu’ils quittent leur maison, il fait nuit. Seuls, quelques lampadaires éclairent modestement la voiture qui quitte l’endroit où ils ont vécu près de 30 ans. La scène dure quelques secondes.

Ils nous abandonnent pour quelques jours leur maison vidée de presque une vie.

Photo d’aujourd’hui : le dernier repas d'habitants de Rafiah Yam avant leur départ définitif du bloc de colonies Gush Katif à Gaza.

* Rafiah Yam est une colonie israélienne à l'intérieur du bloc de colonies "Gush Katif".
