The Talmud contains a legend concerning the remarkable stone called the Shamir with which King Solomon tried and trued the stones for the Temple. The Shamir was the magical jewel, or “worm” used by Aaron to cut the stones for the breastplate of the High Priest. Solomon, when ordered to build the Temple without the sound of hammers, could not cut the stones in the ordinary manner, but by laying the Shamir against the side of the rock the stones instantly and noiselessly separated according to any desired pattern. In order to learn the whereabouts of the Shamir, Solomon invoked the elementals, who told him that Ashmedai, the great king of the Shedds, could give him the desired information.

Lilith is a figure of the Jewish mythology, whose origins probably stem in the female demons of the Mesopotamian religion. In Jewish folklore, Lilith is Adam's first wife, created at the same time and from the same earth as Adam (this contrasts with Eve, who was created from one of Adam's ribs). After refusing to be treated as inferior to Adam, she voluntarily left Adam and the Eden.

Pharisees are good, actually. Show your Pharisee pride.

A common misconception sure to literary and historical ignorance, subterfuge and outright lies. The Pharisees and Sadducees were part of a religious sect who took over the Hebrew temple and infused their Hasmonean deity with the worship of the Most High YHWH. They were the replacements from Samaria, Media, and Babylon who worshipped the prince demon, Asmodeous. They exiled the legitimate priests of YHWH to Bethabara (Qumran). They followed the Babylonian Talmud and though they "sat in the seat of Moses" they did not practice his writings - the perfect instructions of YHWH.
