Adam, Eve, Lilith and Cats Superstition |
|
The origin of this superstition seems to go all the way back to an ancient Hebrew folk tale. According to this folk tale, Lilith was Adam’s wife before Eve. She was banished from the garden of Eden for refusing to submit to Adam and then haunted the earth as a demon. Sephardic Jews believed that Lilith sucked the blood of the newborn by taking the form of a giant black cat named El Broosha. Last 5 posts in Cat FunShare and Enjoy
