There is no evidence that either Lilith or Adam ever existed. Lilith is probably based on the Babylonian demoness, Lilitu. There may be one reference to Lilith in the Old Testament. Some believe the original Hebrew word in Isaiah 34:14 should rendered as "Lilith", instead of the customary "screech owls".

Where can research be found on Lilith who is supposed to be Adams wife?
There is only one place that Lilith is mentioned in the Bible, at Isaiah 34:14. The medieval translators who gave us the King James Bible did not understand this reference and so translated it as 'screech owl', but undoubtedly the original is a reference to Lilith.A number of Jewish midrashim refer to Lilith, and that would be the best place to research her.

Was Lilith a real person and Adams's wife?
We have two main sources for information on much of Jewish religion - the Bible and Jewish midrash. Lilith is not actually mentioned in the Bible, but does form part of Jewish midrash, where she is said to have been Adam's first wife. Although the name Lilith is often considered to be from the Hebrew Laylah(night), she is probably based on the Babylonian female demon, Lilitu, so on that basis we should consider her a demon, not a real person.

Who was Adam's first wife in Jewish folklore?
When God created Adam, he was lonely, so God created Lilith from the same dust from which Adam was molded. But they quarrelled; Adam [the proverbial domineering male] wished to rule over Lilith. But Lilith [a militant feminist] was also proud and willful, claiming equality with Adam because she was created from the same dust. She left Adam and fled the Garden. God sent three angels in pursuit of Lilith. They caught her and ordered her to return to Adam. She refused, and said that she would henceforth weaken and kill little children, infants and babes. The angels overpowered her, and she promised that if the mother hung an amulet over the baby bearing the names of the three angels, she would stay away from that home. So they let her go, and God created Eve to be Adam's mate [created from Adam's rib, so that she couldn't claim equality]. And ever since, Lilith flies around the world, howling her hatred of mankind through the night, and vowing vengeance because of the shabby treatment she had received from Adam. She is also called "The Howling One." So Lilith was Adams first wife.

Lilith was Adam's first Wife. She refused to listen to him and want to be "on top" so to speak. She was then banished and lived among Demons. She's compared to a vampire and preys on young children. This is not in the Bible that I know of but I'm positive that is a Jewish Myth that is based on Fact.
