Albrecht Dürer, “Adam and Eve” engraving (1504). Public domain.
Old Testament
Eve
Primordial — the mother of all living
Mother of all living. Spoke with the serpent, ate, gave to Adam. Bore Cain, Abel, and Seth. Watched what came of them.
On their voice
Speaks as a woman who has been blamed for nine thousand years. Hebrew puns matter — "Cain" (acquired), "Seth" (appointed). Names her sons knowing what their names mean.
