Adam is perfect and happy, enjoying an idyllic but solitary existence. He had no problems, except perhaps the mystery of his testicles ("What are these even <i>for</i>?") </p><p>To help Adam in his solitude, God obligingly created all of the animals and crammed them into the <a href="/wiki/Garden_of_Eden" title="Garden of Eden">Garden of Eden</a> with the First Man. Adam gave them all names ("There are <i>how</i> many species of beetles?!"), but it was not enough to cure his growing loneliness. </p><p>God finally determined to make a companion for Adam, and so he caused him to fall asleep, plucked out a rib,<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5">[note 1]</a></sup> and used it to create a new creature. Adam called it a "woman," and her name was Eve.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6">[note 2]</a></sup> </p><p>All was well in Eden for a time. Adam and Eve are said to have been naked and unashamed, which many have interpreted to mean "celibate."

Enraged, Ninhursag took the semen out of them and planted it in the ground, causing eight plants to grow. Enki ate them, impregnating himself in eight of his body parts. Ninhursag saves him by taking the semen into her body and giving birth to eight children, including one (Ninti) who grew from Enki's rib. </p><p>Another Sumerian myth that parallels the story of, specifically Adam as there is no wife, is that of Adapa. The first man and priest on Earth and founder of civilization, Adapa was made mortal by Enki and was warned by him not to consume the food and water offered in Heaven, which would kill him. One day, Adapa broke the wing of the south wind following an accident, angering the sky god An. Adapa's reputation changes in front of An, who offers him the food and water of immortality as a reward, which he refuses due to Enki's instructions. An is angered again, and sends Adapa, having blew his chance for immortality, back to Earth. </p><p>The parallels are obvious.

However some Apocryphal writings have another version of the fable. In the Babylonian Talmud (generally believed to be written between 400BCE and 200 BCE, which can be compared to the dating of the <a href="/wiki/Hebrew" title="Hebrew">Hebrew</a> canon around 600 BCE, and the scrolls upon which the creation story was originally invented which might be as old as 1200 BCE), God first creates a woman named "<a href="/wiki/Lilith" title="Lilith">Lilith</a>". Babylonian myths seem to associate Lilith to a race of demons. However, there are arguments made (both from the "Women ruled the world once" crowd of Eisler's fame, and the more realistic arguments made by religion scholars that have documented the demonization of female figures throughout mythic and factual history) that women who held roles of power — either mythic or real-world power — were demonized as matriarchal cultures became more patriarchal. Nevertheless, the myth of Lilith exists in several non-Biblical, <a href="/wiki/Abrahamic_religion" title="Abrahamic religion">Abrahamic</a> sources such as <i>Song of the Sage</i>, a book found among the <a href="/wiki/Dead_Sea_Scrolls" title="Dead Sea Scrolls">Dead Sea Scrolls</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12">[7]</a></sup> suggesting she might have been part of the mythic stories about Eve to explain the existence of people other than the Israelites. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Eve_as_symbol">Eve as symbol</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adam_and_Eve&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Eve as symbol">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Scapegoat">Scapegoat</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adam_and_Eve&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Scapegoat">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h3> <p>To many, the biblical story of Eve has had a single purpose: to blame woman for the fall of mankind. Eve caused original sin by acceding to temptation and eating the forbidden fruit, and then brought Adam into her sin by offering some to him. Eve was foolish and sinful, and by extension so are all women. Thus, a fanciful myth becomes the justification to subjugate an entire gender. </p><p>It is important to note two things about this scapegoating of poor Eve: </p> <ol><li>In the actual story from Genesis, Eve is not a great temptress. In fact, she does no tempting at all; she just hands Adam the fruit. The idea that she is a "temptress" comes predominantly from oral tradition and later interpretation, which sought to put the greatest possible blame on the "inferior" woman.</li> <li>Despite this, God does blame Eve and specifically relegates her to secondary status. The injustice comes right from the top.</li></ol> <p>Eve is blamed for the Fall of Man and has been depicted throughout time in a historical dualism as the "evil" side of <a href="/wiki/Woman" class="mw-redirect" title="Woman">woman</a>, with <a href="/wiki/Mary_(Mother_of_Jesus)" class="mw-redirect" title="Mary (Mother of Jesus)">Mary (Mother of Jesus)</a> as the "good" side of <a href="/wiki/Woman" class="mw-redirect" title="Woman">woman</a>. Why Eve should get the blame doesn't make much sense, as until she <a href="/wiki/Original_sin" title="Original sin">ate the fruit</a> of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, she couldn't possibly be held accountable for her actions, as she did not yet know good and evil. The <a href="/wiki/God" title="God">God</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Old_Testament" title="Old Testament">Old Testament</a> has a lot to answer for. YHWH is, indeed, "arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully," according to <a href="/wiki/Richard_Dawkins" title="Richard Dawkins">Richard Dawkins</a> in his book, <i><a href="/wiki/The_God_Delusion" title="The God Delusion">The God Delusion</a></i>. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Temptation">Temptation</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adam_and_Eve&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Temptation">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h3> <p>The figure of Eve has long had connotations of temptation, in keeping with her traditional role in the story. In part, Eve represents the dark side of women and the sinful nature of man, as the first sinner.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13">[8]</a></sup> But even further, she is a dichotomy unto herself as the embodiment of both sides of a false duality that has been established for women: the choice between ingenue and fallen woman. For much of history, women were seen in one or the other of two roles: </p> <ol><li>virginal Eve in the Garden, a figure of virtue and innocence rivaled only by <a href="/wiki/Jesus" title="Jesus">Jesus</a>' mother <a href="/wiki/Mary" title="Mary">Mary</a></li> <li>sinful Eve in the dust of the earth, a "used" woman whose own <a href="/wiki/New_Testament" title="New Testament">New Testament</a> parallel would be <a href="/wiki/Mary_Magdalene" title="Mary Magdalene">Mary Magdalene</a></li></ol> <p>This duality resonates throughout literature, and became embedded in the social structure of Western and Middle Eastern society, justified by myth.
