Gen 2:21–23). The name אשה (woman) used by Adam in Gen 2:23 obviously relates – at least phonetically – to the noun איש (man). In this way, the editor expresses the idea of a certain relationship between man and woman. The existence of a similar, simple connection between the name חוה (Eve) and the title אם כל־חי (the mother of all living) is far less obvious and this conundrum has been noticed by translators and exegetes for at least 2000 years. An echo of these difficulties seems to be perceptible in the text of the Septuagint, in the writings of Philo and Josephus, in the Targums, as well as in the writings of some ancient Christian writers. This article represents one further attempt to present the panorama of modern hypotheses concerning Eve’s name and the role this naming play in Gen 3.enCC-BY-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Bez utworów zależnychGen 3:20Gen 3Evenamingmother of all livingBook of Genesisserpentlifemeaning of the name Everole of the name Eve in Genesis 3BibleOld Testamentbiblical studiesexegesisbiblical exegesistheologybiblical theologynameEwanazwanienadanie imieniamatka wszystkich żyjącychKsięga Rodzajuwążżycieznaczenie imienia Ewarola imienia Ewa w Rdz 3BibliaPismo ŚwięteStary Testamentbiblistykaegzegezaegzegeza biblijnateologiateologia biblijnaimięRdz 3Article
