Bible stories not only interested in deeply religious people, but those who want to know about alternative course of events of the creation of the world and man. Because the school told of Darwin's theory of the origin of man and how God created woman and man, often did not report the students. Only the inquisitive boys and girls can learn from Christian parents or in this article. So, today you will learn how God created woman, and who was the first man on Earth. The article provides two versions of the origin women, one official, the other is a legendary, mythological, however, actively supported by researchers of the text of the Bible.

Adam

There is Probably no such people who would not hear about that the first people on Earth were Adam and eve. Associated with them and Heaven and the fall, they were the first people and the first sinners. The Bible says that God created the first human beings in his image and likeness. But this does not mean that people necessarily similar in appearance to God. This means that man had a mind, will, feelings and sense of truth - as claimed by the clergy. First, Adam was created “from the dust of the earth" God breathed life into him. Adam he lived in a wonderful garden called Eden, or Paradise. There the first man was supposed to take care of flowers and trees, care for animals and birds, give them names.

The Birth of eve

Each animal had a couple, and then Adam was alone, and, according to the Bible, he was sad. Then God decided to create a couple and first man. Parable, God created woman, says that the Lord made Adam a deep sleep, took a rib from his chest and created a woman. Adam, waking up and finding my next pair, was very happy. He called her eve, that is ‘life”. Further the Bible says that the first man and woman loved and helped each other in everything.

So, how and why God created woman, became clear. However, there is an alternate version of Biblical events.

The First woman on Earth

In Genesis (the first book of creation) says that "God created man in His own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them”. This equal position of women and men here, many researchers have interpreted this: Adam was created not alone, God just created him a wife, which subsequently doesn't the Bible mention.

Oddly enough, this version is actively supported by many. The first woman is not called eve, Lilith was created from dust, like Adam. This version included many apocryphal (i.e. not recognized by the official Church) compositions. That's how God created a woman according to the unofficial version. Then why on Lilith does not know anything?

Mutiny

The Legend says that Lilith and Adam lived happily until the woman wanted equality. She refused to obey her husband, so Adam denied his first wife. Lilith flew away from Adam and became the wife of Satan. Three angels, sent by God, tried to bring her back to Eden, but she refused. Subsequently, Lilith became a demon, it scared small children, according to the legend.

And Adam, being miserable and lonely, and asked God to create for him a wife who would be respected, appreciated and loved him. So there was eve, not equal to Adam, but created from his rib.

According to the researchers, the legend of Lilith as the first woman on the Earth-truth. However, the official Church is forced to hide it because Lilith was not a model of humility and purity, what you expect from a Christian.

Now you know two versions of how God created woman. Which one to prefer - the choice is yours. And the fact that one of them is official, the Church, and the second – apocryphal, legendary – it's a fact.

The Image of Lilith in art

It is Worth saying a few words about what the image of Lilith is not just used in the art due to its mystery and Enigma. For example, in "Faust" Goethe presents Lilith first wife of Adam, the alluring temptress:

The First wife of Adam.
the toilet of her braid.
Beware of her hair…

In Russian poetry you can also find the name of Lilith, for example, in the poem “eve and Lilith” N. Gumilev

Lilith-inaccessible constellations crown,
In countries the diamond sun is growing
And eve — and the children, and a flock of sheep
In the garden potatoes and home comfort.

In the painting also an image of Lilith is found more than once: M. Yusin, Stanislav Krupp, Frank Obermeyer, and many others use the legend to create his paintings dedicated to the female demon.
