(eeve) Personal name meaning, “life.” The first woman created and thus original ancestor of all people (Genesis 3:20; compare Genesis 4:1-2 ,Genesis 4:1-2,4:25 ). She also faced the serpent's temptation first (Genesis 3:1; 2 Corinthians 11:3; 1 Timothy 2:13-14 ). Her fall illustrates the ease with which all persons fall into sin (2 Corinthians 11:3 ). See Adam and Eve .
