Well considering the effect of her books transforms the person into a demon that then becomes violent and that she knows this will happen, I wouldn't place too much stock in her supposed benevolent motive. (Especially considering her later plans for the reactor dooms Tokyo to remain demon infested)

I think it makes sense in SMT4 with her mythology bc she essentially rebelled against what God wanted from her in order to be the person she so desired, even when being cursed for doing so. After her punishment she denied the offer to return in order to stand by her ideals. I think that's the sort of angle they were taking with SMT4 personally

@@Tony4You rather people adapted her to make the story of what they wanted to be reflected in their culture have a fabricated religious source... They made her the wife for reasons nowadays misogynistic, because that fit their narrative. Similarly then around 1500, when Church stopped being cool, people were using her as symbol of rebellion and necessary change... Or maybe worse, to still assert dominance of men over women to add onto it. And then SMT has a hate boner against Law routes so they make her purely sympathetic- This recontextualisation isn't anything new in cultures frankly, having happened since dawn of time. Yet it is still quite interesting to see and observe this process over the years as people use often folk stories to propagate their worldviews and altering meanings. Lol, Lilith kinda is like Pandora in that sense - starting out as "Woman Evil" to become something more as time went by.

Strangely enough the story of Lillth was meant to explain the error in Genesis but in reality adds another error as God states that Eve will be lower in status to Adam after the eating of the apple. It wouldn't make sense if Eve was made to be inferior and then God having to restate that, especially since Genesis does not state anything about Eve being different other than she being female.

Lore from SMT1 revealed that she wants demons and humans to co-existed, so with what I heard, her morality is a bit more nuance in that while she can be extremely jealous with dangerous tendency, she does genuinely want the protagonist to be happy. I think that while she's in Chaos alignment, her goal is pretty noble and maybe view negative aspect of Chaos as side-effect for what she wants.

Lilith really is just a big mood. This has nothing to do with the biblical legend herself but in one of my favorite games VA-11 HALL-A, Lilith is a more or less an Original AI/Collective source of knowledge and memory storage that the newer race of AIs called "Lilim" are all based off of. I just find it neat that even somewhere in a cyberpunk setting that Lilith's name alone is used to bring about great change. Lilim themselves are humanoid robots that sometimes question the nature of life itself and what even being conscious even means. Hearing this video definitely reminded me of how cool she is in SMT and how seeing her name in various media still continues to promote her as a kinda badass or important name to attach to things that defy norms and established order, for good or bad.

Its interesting how despite Lilith being a pretty recurrent Demoness... Adam and Eve barely even appear. And you know, if some artistic liberties were taken... I would like a Megaten game that has a similar Adam And Eve-plot to SMT 1, but far more in-depth. And with this twist that, I dont know how everyone would react to. That being, that in this hypothetical game. Lilith and Eve are actually one and the same.

Thank you for this video! I've waited a long time for this topic and I'm so glad that it finally showed up! Genesis 1:26-27 can also be explained as follows: "our image" refers to God (the father) talking about this to God (the Holy Spirit) and God (Jesus, the son). God spoke about the day that he created mankind, which was the 5th day. He created Adam and Eve on this day. In Genesis 2 it mentions how Adam was created, but it doesn't specify that he was created AFTER the 5th day. Therefore, you can interpret it as God created mankind, i.e. Adam and eventually Eve on the 5th day. Chapter 2 just goes into more detail about mankind's creation in Chapter 2.

I think it could be that in Genesis, the line "he created them in his image, man and woman," I think that this line was meant to be out of chronology, more of a poetic line than describing the chronology of events. That is how I understand why it comes before mentioning Eve's creation. I think anyone can agree that not all verses are literal or even in order.

I could be wrong, but I notice Lilith has a pompadour hairstyle, and those are associated with rebellion in Japan. It fits with her as a rebellious figure.

The weird thing about all of this is that in my reading it seemed obvious that Genesis 1 was a high level telling of the creation of the world by God with Genesis 2 going more in depth about the creation of man. The creation of all the animals is mentioned twice as well but there isn't some dark animal squad theorized to exist.

the whole "Lilith being created as lesser" for how interesting is against scripture. In Genesis its never stated that there is a hierarchy between man and woman, some suggesting that Eve being taken from Adam's ribs signifies that she is his equal. I do understand however that when the Midrash in Lilith has been written women were conceived as inferior, resulting in the strange feminist spin Lilith took.

My terrible joke not withstanding, I can't help but understand lillit's rebellion, I mean god wanted to make her a the first simp, and I'm sitting here to myself "why would god do something so NOT GOOD?"A woman not wanting to be submissive to a man makes perfect sense, and this is coming from me......A GUY.

The more I look into these Abrahamic stories the more I come to the conclusion that God is supposed to be a representation of a household, family and civilization while demonhood is a representation of barbarism and primal instincts. It is why man fluctuates between the two because they are both part of human nature. In this light I have come to appreciate these stories as they make way more sense when viewed in this context.

I don't know how to feel about that. Lilith being a wild and untethered person is a stronger image of her. A woman who refused to bend knee to her "superior", Adam. Also, if anything I like the idea that she returns, sees another woman who is submissive to her former husband, and wanting to liberate her as well, giving her the fruit to try and give her the same freedom

@@treyatkinson7564 Honestly her freedom, was literal punishment, to me Lillith just wants to make other women miserable just like her in the false pretense of liberation, literally like feminism. Also if God says that Adam is superior, he is superior, she "resisting" that might as well be a child throwing a temper tantrum, which she does, Lillith is the story of someone behemently wanting to be and make others miserable in the false pretense of freedom.

I think you would like the short graphic novel series "The Book of Lost Souls". It is heavily influenced by Christian mythology and adds its own spin to things. Two that come to mind are God and the devil being referred to as the 'two' and whether Adam and Eve could understand the consequence of eating the fruit. It is because of this series that I tried my own hand at the Lilith myth, where her rebellion is spurred by her being the first created and therefore seeing Adam as her child, instead of her mate. God is depicted as a ball of light, but this first disobedience, this first sin, causes a dark spot to form and eventually encompass half of the sphere. By the way, I really enjoy your videos and am astounded by the level of research you must do when making them.

“God created man and woman in Genesis 1, but that couldn’t possibly be true, because he didn’t create woman until Genesis 2.” Uh, actually, I gotta correct you, my man. God’s creations are listed in their chronological order in Genesis 1 and then Genesis 2 goes into detail as to why God created woman and how he created her on the 6th day, after Adam (who was also created on the 6th day). Genesis 2:4-5 actually says, “4 These are the generations [accounts] of the heavens and the earth when they were created, IN THE DAY THAT THE LORD GOD MADE THE EARTH AND HEAVENS (which is day one of creation). 5 When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprang up-for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the land, and THERE WAS NO MAN TO WORK THE GROUND (meaning, still, that the Bible is saying that man was not yet present on the first day of creation)…” So, the statement that God didn’t create man until Genesis 2 is wrong because you’re lining up the story chronologically based on the placement of the verses, which was a mistake because a lot of the Bible isn’t chronologically told in this way. You missed the actual chronological list of God’s creations in Genesis 1, which describes the true timeline of creation. All Genesis 1 does is make a list, and all Genesis 2 does is zoom in on day 6, when we’re talking about the creation of Adam and Eve. So, we can see that, while Genesis 2 details the creation of man and woman *after* the list of creation in Genesis 1, Adam and Eve were *still* created on the 6th day in both chapters. Genesis 2 says man and woman were absent at the creation of the heavens and the earth, so God decided to create them last (again, on day 6) to care for everything that was created at the start. There is no contradiction there, my dude, sorry! Good video, anyway, love your channel 👍

Modern iterations of the Bible leave her unmentioned, as the writings said that Eve was the first woman. I could easily call Lilith the mother of sex demons(incubi and succubi), but in my eyes she, not Satan encouraged Adam and Eve to consume the forbidden fruit and get banished from Eden in order to win back the first man. The attempt failed, and Lilith married Samael. She's sorta like the female alternative to Asmodeus, am I right?
