3. She Received Her Background During The Middle Ages
The first time Lilith’s background became public was in the Alphabet of Ben Sira during the 8th and 10th centuries. Not only does this story state that Lilith was Adam’s wife before Eve, but it also describes the reason for their separation and gives her the name Lilith.
Because of this text, Jewish scholars were able to piece together that Lilith is discussed in Genesis 1. Furthermore, they realized why people don’t consider Lilith in a positive way.
