Usage
The name "Chavvah" (Eve) is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to the first woman, the wife of Adam. The name is often understood to mean "life" or "living," as she is described as "the mother of all the living" (Genesis 3:20, BSB). This reflects her role in the biblical narrative as the progenitor of the human race.
