Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eve was not Adam's first wife. That honor belongs to Lilith, who was created as Adam's equal. When he tried to dominate her, she uttered God's secret name and flew away. Lilith is mentioned in the Talmud, elaborated on in the midrash and in the kabbalah, whispered about in stories, and passed down from mother to daughter. In this anthology, a vivid, provocative, and enlightening sampling of Jewish women's written responses to the Lilith myth are offered. The editors have provided the space for contemporary women to link themselves to a tradition and participate in a sacred activity, thereby infusing energy into Lilith and creating a new tradition.

Book excerpt: This first collection of Judith Plaskow's essays and short writings traces her scholarly and personal journey from her early days as a graduate student through her pioneering contributions to both feminist theology and Jewish feminism to her recent work in sexual ethics. Accessibly organized into four sections, the collection begins with several of Plaskow's foundational essays on feminist theology, including one previously unavailable in English. Section II addresses her nuanced understanding of oppression and includes her important work on anti-Judaism in Christian feminism. Section III contains a variety of short and highly readable pieces that make clear Plaskow's central role in the creation of Jewish feminism, including the essential "Beyond Egalitarianism." Finally, section IV presents her writings on the significance of sexual ethics to the larger project of transforming Judaism. Intelligently edited with the help of Rabbi Donna Berman, and including pieces never before published, The Coming of Lilith is indispensable for religious studies students, fans of Plaskow's work, and those pursuing a Jewish education.

Book excerpt: "The book of Lilith tells the real story of creation. Lilith is the first human to be given a soul by God following a thirteen billion year process of mechanical, soulless evolution. Her job is to give souls to all things and awaken them to the Watcher that watches the watcher, watching the world. The first person she grants a soul to is Adam, who is given a job of his own: to invent the definition of sin, create a moral sense in a world that utterly lacks one, and hence bring about the rule of law in a compassionate society. Unfortunately, Adam has a hard time accepting the fact that he was given his soul second, instead of first, and by Lilith, not God. The conflict this engenders leads to the destruction of Eden, the creation of Eve, and a voyage of self-discovery that spans a world"--P. [4] of cover.

Book excerpt: In a fascinating excursion through the history of her myth, Siegmund Hurwitz presents and interprets the ancient dark-winged goddess Lilith, also known as ’the first Eve.’ The author’s extraordinarily meticulous study of the original sources brings to light a striking figure long lost from our awareness, yet highly relevant to a psychological understanding of today’s evolving masculine and feminine identities. Case material from his analytical practice imbeds Lilith in the everyday problems of contemporary life. That an unbridled life-urge which refuses to be assimilated lies behind depression… seems to me to be a new and important discovery. By combining the experience of a contemporary man with this historical material, Siegmund Hurwitz sheds new light on both. -- From the Foreword by Marie-Louise von Franz

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Mikayla Strong graduated college, she expected to hit the ground running. Instead, she's stuck getting coffee and spellchecking contracts for Bass Note Productions. She won't give up her dream of working in events management, but no matter how many hours she spends scrolling through job ads during her lunch breaks there just don't seem to be any jobs anymore. A chance meeting with the drummer of Black Lilith, a hot new band, getting ready for its first international tour, sends Mikayla careening out of her comfort zone and into a world of sex, drugs, and rock n roll. She goes from overqualified barista to overqualified PA overnight, and even though the band's lead singer, Logan Todd, pushes all of her buttons, Mikayla thinks she might just be able to make this new job work for her. But Black Lilith isn't as tight-knit as they seem in interviews. As Mikayla gets to know the four band members better, a web of lies and heartbreak begins to show itself. Between fans with knives, fights in hotel corridors, and the bands very strict 'no dating PAs' rule, Mikayla's growing attraction to Logan Todd may be the least of her problems. At this rate, she'll be lucky if she makes it to the end of the tour...

Book excerpt: Adam's First Wife is an account of the story of Lilith, named in Gnostic and ancient Hebrew literature as the original wife of the man, Adam, his first "helpmeet". Described in those texts as having been created from " filth and sediment" instead of "pure dust," she was a woman of color. This mysterious dark-skinned woman is lauded as beautiful and blue-eyed. Simultaneously, she is named as the prototype of the incubus, night monster in early legend. Called a seducer in nightmares, vilified by gossip, she was eliminated as a real person and her possible historical legacy removed through denial of her very existence. Eve's descendants , the development of systemic colorism and certainly the seventeenth century scholars of King James attempted to omit every reference to her, even as an ancient queen. But, "she" existed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has never been a Goddess in all the western traditions as maligned as the Goddess Lilith. She has been called the epitome of all that is evil in the world. She was considered wild, uninhibited, argumentative and sexually deviant. She has been called the temptress, the prostitute from hell and most popularly as the succubus that comes and not only steals the semen of men as they sleep but also killing them in the process. Some of these qualities might very well be true and some not so much. One thing we know for sure is that she is a very powerful and ancient goddess. In this book, we will discuss what we know of her from the Western traditions. I will present the information chronologically; I will start with the earliest known accounts of Lilith to the most recent. I must warn you however, much of the evidence we have about Lilith is very biased but despite this, I think we can learn much about her and put her "reputation" into the proper perspective. Although some may consider her evil, I consider her the quintessential goddess of the left-hand path. In this book, we will discuss the story of Lilith and more importantly; we will learn how to tap into her fierce energy so we too can walk the left hand path with her. She is not for the faint of heart...You have been warned. In this book we will preform 7 rituals: 1.To Place a curse on your enemy. 2.Bind someone to do your will. (It could be for any purpose) 3.To gain Seductive powers 4.To Gain Protection from Lilith (Read carefully) 5.To gain courage and Inner Strength 6. To Gain Occult Power and Wisdom. 7.Sexually Dedicate yourself to Lilith
