It should at the same time be noticed that in Arabic, in which, as in Hebrew, men are usually called banû Adam, the expression banû Ḥawwâʾa (sons of Eve) also occurs; e.g. in a verse of the Kumeyt (Aġânî, XV. 124; wa-cheynu banî Ḥawwâʾa), in a poem of Abû-l-ʿAlâ al-Maʿarrî, I. 96. 1, of al-Murtaḍî in the Keshkùl of al-ʿÂmilî, p. 169.
