Oooo that sounds super interesting! I only know a little bit of Lilith thanks to the show Chilling Adventures of Sabrina but the character seemed really cool.
Originally I was going to say it’s the sweetness of the forbidden fruit and then that kinda turned into Lilith’s blessing as I was thinking about it, but I didn’t feel I had enough knowledge to say it sincerely. Which, maybe I should find a different way of expressing that without sarcasm. Idk.
Its no worries! Lilith is a really cool mythology and evolution, showing the demonization of femininity as patriarchal structures were imposed. She like is there and then shes gone for a while and then she shows back up, its really interesting. If you want the masters thesis i can try to find it for ya.
People also point to the alphabet of ben sira a lot, but that text may have been the rabbinical equivalent of south park, so im hesitant to rely on its framing as mythological fact and treat it with some suspicion.
Thank you! I’d like to read it ideally but I kinda doubt I’d get to it anytime soon tbh. My reading list is already so long it’s kinda daunting to think about :( these comments alone have been super interesting to read though!
