'''Lilith''' is a [[demon]] or [[succubus]] in [[Jewish]] [[mythology]]. According to a late forgery claiming to have been written by Ben Sira, Lilith is the first wife of [[Adam]] (before [[Eve]]), and she leaves [[Eden]] in a metaphorical version of [[divorce]]. This is because she refuses to be subservient and believes that both she and Adam were made from the earth and were equal. After she leaves Eden she is transformed into a succubus and [[cursed]] by [[God]] to never find [[love]] because her kisses suck the life out of mortal men.<ref>http://www.scribd.com/doc/7376632/Lilith</ref>

The [[Bible]] mentions Lilith only once, in [[Isaiah (Biblical book)|Isaiah 34]]: ''“Wildcats shall meet hyenas, / Goat-demons shall greet each other; / There too the lilith shall repose / And find herself a resting place”'' (Isaiah 34:14). In the [[King James Version]], “lilith” is translated “screech owl”.<ref>http://www.biblicalarchaeology.org/daily/people-cultures-in-the-bible/people-in-the-bible/lilith/</ref>
