S4E3: Lilith - The mother of demons part 1
Another 2 part episode. In this first part I tell a few tales from throughout history of the entity known as Lilith, from what some say is the first mention of her in Mesopotamia to 13th century Jewish Kabbalah stories. In part 2 I shall do a dive into the history and translations and mysticism around her, in this episode it is mostly tales.
Inanna and the Huluppo tree is from Kramer, S 1938:
