    Isn’t Shapiro Jewish? Are there any differences in the human origin story in Judaism compared to the other Abrahamic religions?

      If you mean Genesis, there isn’t much difference between that and Bereishis, as far as I’m aware. And from what I’ve heard, Muslims believe Christianity is also true, but that Mohammed is simply a later prophet. But I’m far from an expert on this.

        Islam believes in most of the Jesus story; that he was the Messiah, he was born of a virgin, and performed miracles. However it differs where they believe that Jesus is not the Son of God nor was he resurrected.

        But yeah, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Baha’i are the major Abrahamic religions and worship the same monotheistic God.

      Judaism has two versions which have developed into a folkloric resolution of conflict.

      The first version is what you know, but the second, which is actually canon to the Islamic version of Genesis, is that Adam and Eve were created simultaneously and co-equally.

      More mystical sects of Judaism resolved the difference less by just picking one and more by saying that the woman who was made co-equal with Adam was a different woman named Lilith, and Eve was made from his rib.

      Lilith is… complicated, depending on who’s talking she’s often considered a mythical mother of monsters because feminism and gender equality bad.

      You know how Christians have an Old Testament and New Testament? That’s because Jesus is introduced in the New Testament. Jewish people only use the Old Testament.
