Three main books on interpretations of Adam and Eve and a few others were researched. In the Bible it is said that Adam was made from the dust of the earth, while in the Talmud Adam is made from mud, and in the Koran it is said that Adam was made from the earth. The Jewish interpretation of Adam and Eve is similar to both the Christian and Islamic versions. Jews do not believe in original sin like Christians. They believe that everyone is born with a clean slate like Muslims do. Christians believe that everyone is born contaminated. Some Jews also believe that Eve was not the first woman and that Lilith was the first woman. These books, even though they were similar, had major differences throughout the story of Adam and Eve. The Jews also believed in a different Adam and Eve tradition. Jewish mythology had the idea that there was a woman before Eve. The first woman is known as Lilith. They came to this from chapters one and two of Genesis when it says “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them” (Genesis, 1:27, international version) and the second story is when it says “Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib that he had taken from the man, and brought her to the man” (Genesis, 2 :22, international version). So scholars began to think if man and woman were created together with respect to Eve, does that mean there was someone else? The Jews invented Lilith, they say Lilith left Adam because she refused to be submissive to Adam. When she left Adam, he felt alone. God saw that Adam was alone, so he put him into a deep sleep and took one of his ribs to create Eve. Some say the first woman, called Lilith, was part demon. Christ...... in the center of the card......llah with his infinite mercy forgave them both, which is different from the teaching of Christianity on original sin. After some time Allah sent Adam to Earth, his wife and her descendants. From that moment the descendants knew that the stay on earth is temporary and that the afterlife is home or heaven or hell. Now on earth Allah warned Adam and his descendants about the whisper of Satan. In conclusion, the three stories are similar but have major differences. In the Jewish, Christian and Islamic religions, Eve is born from Adam's rib while he sleeps. Christians and Jews believe that Satan came in the form of a serpent and told Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, while the Islamic view tells of Satan whispering to the hearts of Adam and Eve causing them to start questioning what Allah told them . They forgot what Allah's warning was and went to eat the fruit.
