Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
I came in to work today hearing a coworker talk about Lilith. In the bible. He never watched true blood so I researched it and found this


Let's start with the Bible as primary source material. Genesis of course mentions Adam and Eve, but -- please note -- doesn't mention Lilith. The idea of Lilith as a "prior first woman" before Eve arises much later. The only reference to Lilith in the Bible (Old or New Testaments) is Isaiah 34:14, probably written around 540 BC; it's a description of desolation, jackals and ravens among nettles and briers, etc.: "Goat demons shall greet each other; there too the lilith will repose." Most of the other creatures referenced in this poetry cannot be positively identified. The KJV, following the Vulgate, translates "the lilith" as "the night demon," confusing the lili- with the Hebrew word for night. But presumably Isaiah meant some sort of demon.



Crazy how this year is all about religion with the one vamp admitting she was written about in the bible and Lilith also being a character from the bible

I just love when :boss: Russ scold those vamp youngins into oblivion. And, is it me, or is his accent changing everytime he mentioned his age difference. :ehh:

It's supposed to change. They didn't have hick accents 3000 years ago. Vamps might move to a location for a few hundred years. Long enough to know the language and fake accents. Remember Eric doing one at the sun church. In season one he only spoke Viking to Pam. I imagine Russell keeps that hick joint to blend in and for shyts and giggles. But just like a human, in anger u revert to what's natural for you

jews took her out of the old testament but she was the first woman created by god. But because she would not submit to Adam she was cast out of paradise. then she started making demons.

To be fair, Lilith and Cain have been written about as the first vampires in numerous fictional prices including the more surrounding the white wolf world of darkness rp world

This fukking show ended at 9:52. With all the shyt going on and next week be the season finale how the hell do they justify throwing away 8 minutes?
And that head fairy had the weakest plan ever...what was the point of her going out there alone when she got handled so easily? Wasting all that time on Alcide and hs pos fr no good reason made no sense either.
Also Sookie is obviously showing now based on the clothes she has been wearing and the way they don't show her full body all that much. I'm assuming that is why she hasn't been naked this season either.
