    as a jewish person and a hebrew speaker, i would like to say 2 things: 1) kind of funny that you didn't mention that lilith's name literally translates to "of the night [fem]" which is the source for much of the reasoning that she is a creature of the night, likely a type of owl. 2) i cannot overstate how little lilith matters to most jews. she is very elevated in her status by kabbalists, beforehand demonology in judaism was very minor and niche. lilth is obviously very interesting because she is shrouded in so much mystery, but much of this mystery is straight up jewish disinterest. to be clear, while most gentiles hear a lot about the kabbalah, it is a small subsection in judaism, that very few dwell in.

    I’m not sure if Lilith believe in equality. From what I’m seeing she wanted to be a switch vs Adam who wanted to be a dom. 😂 Unfortunately Eve doesn’t win in neither version. Sexist men blame Eve for being the woman to bring evil into the world. Those who believe in the Lilith version think Eve was made to be submissive to Adam. Though she didn’t become submissive until she ate the apple and that was one of her punishments. Is it feminist to uplift one woman to drag another? I think God wanted us to be equal but humans do anything to justify their actions.

About Ashurah in particular, found many statuettes of her were found, there's even a ruined jewish temple with shrines to both yhwh and ashurah along with many ancient isrealite godess statues, we even know that in the -VIIth century, so even before monotheism started to become popular, king Joshia led a campaign to stop the worshipping of Ashurah. So what you're saying is more equivalent to "Han Solo never shot first, that is just fanfiction." (couldn't find a better example :^( ). Also what the heck would a fanfiction of an aggregate of books written by multiple people at different times would even mean? Isn't like most of the Torah fanfiction?

    One of my writing projects I have on the back burner is a fantasy story about an elven witch who runs a potion shop. In that world's mythology, the first humans were Adam and Eve and the first elves were Asriel and Lilith. The focal character of my story is named after that world's biblical Lilith. I always thought the idea of Lilith being booted for demanding equality made for a good source story to tweak.

    Man and woman were already equal, so Lilith did not need to demand equality. I think the reason why she was booted is because she was not being nice which was introducing sin to the world too early.

    Since the velocity of the cabinet is constant, its acceleration must be zero. Therefore, the effective force acting on it is also zero. This implies that the magnitude of opposing frictional force is equal to the force exerted on the cabinet, which is 200 N. Therefore, the total friction force is -200 N.

    That would really be amazing! I don't think it's likely due to how "not-super-populaur" it is, and it isn't AS big as like Greek or Norse. I'm no expert on Slavic myth, but there isn't a WHOLE lot of stories, most of it is just characters (who do have many stories of course) Most stories of Slavic Myth feel like fairytale. Like the Koschei story, pretty much all baba yaga stories. But there is also the gods, but there doesn't seem to be much info.on them.

    It's funny to call it Biblical literature because that's basically what it is, the "9 types of Angels" are pure Bible headcanon that does not correspond with anything stated in early CE when it was written. Angels, or Mal'achs, are creatures that nothing had to do with the Seraphs and the Cherubs, much less the wheels that might not even be living creatures.

Considering the rather misogynistic "retellings" it's entirely possible Lilith was used as a title, like Nyx, once she realized Adam was, like every man of that Era *COUGH ZUES COUGH COUGH* she went off on her own. Come on let's be honest we'd do the exact same thing in her position
