Usage: In the New Testament, Εὔα (Heua) refers to Eve, the first woman created by God according to the Genesis account. She is recognized as the wife of Adam and the mother of all living. Her name is mentioned in the context of discussions about sin, temptation, and the role of women in the early church.

Cultural and Historical Background: Eve is a central figure in the creation narrative found in Genesis 2-3. She is created by God from Adam's rib to be his companion. The account of Eve's temptation by the serpent and the subsequent fall of man is foundational to Christian theology, illustrating themes of temptation, sin, and redemption. In the Greco-Roman world, where the New Testament was written, Eve's account was often used to discuss the nature of women, sin, and the need for salvation through Christ.
