Lilith Jigsaw Puzzle

20” x 20” jigsaw puzzle with an image of the Goddess Lilith entwined by a snake. In Jewish folklore, Lilith becomes Adam's first wife, who was created at the same time and from the same earth as Adam. This contrasts with Eve, who was created from one of Adam's ribs. According to the 13th Century writings of Rabbi Isaac ben Jacob ha-Cohen, Lilith left Adam after she refused to become subservient to him and then would not return to the Garden of Eden after she mated with archangel Samael. By French artist John Collier, 1887. See the entire Goddess Puzzle collection in the ACTIVITIES | Puzzles section.
