-The '''''[[Book of Enoch]]''''' is an ancient Hebrew apocalyptic religious text, ascribed by tradition to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah. Enoch contains unique material on the origins of [[demon]]s and Nephilim, telling why some [[angel]]s fell from heaven, an explanation of why the Genesis flood was morally necessary, and prophetic exposition of the thousand-year reign of the Messiah.
+'''[[Lilith]]''' is a female figure in Mesopotamian and [[Judaism|Judaic]] mythology, theorized to be the first wife of Adam or a primordial [[demon]]. She is thought to be mentioned in the [[Bible|Biblical]] Book of Isaiah, and in Late Antiquity in Mandaean mythology and Jewish mythology sources from 500 CE onward.
-Three books are traditionally attributed to Enoch, including the distinct works 2 Enoch and 3 Enoch, although none of the three books are considered canonical scripture by the majority of [[Judaism|Jewish]] or [[Christianity|Christian]] bodies.
+Lilith appears in various concepts and localities that give partial descriptions of her. She is mentioned in the Babylonian Talmud (Eruvin 100b, Niddah 24b, Shabbat 151b, Baba Bathra 73a), in the ''Book of Adam and Eve'' as Adam's first wife, and in the [[Zohar]] as "a hot fiery female who first cohabited with man." Many traditional rabbinic authorities, including Maimonides and Menachem Meiri, reject the existence of Lilith.
-The older sections I Enoch (mainly in the Book of the Watchers) of the text are estimated to date from about 300–200 BC, and the latest part (Book of Parables) probably to 100 BC.
