Adam

(Heb.)

In the Kabalah Adam is the “only‐begotten”, and means also “red earth”. (See “Adam‐Adami” in the S.D. II p. 452.) It is almost identical with Athamas or Thomas, and is rendered into Greek by Didumos, the “twin”—Adam, “the first”, in chap. 1 of Genesis, being shown, “male‐female.” (TG).
