Lilith, according to Jewish traditional stories (but not the official religious texts), was the first wife of Adam. According to the story, Lillith was created at the same time as Adam, but refused to be servile or obediant to him in any way, so she was cast out. God then made Eve from the rib to be her replacement. Some versions of the story say that Lilith was jealous of Eve's children so Lilith tries to kill her descendants in infancy. Other stories have her behaving more like traditional dualistic goddesses. Lillith, in any case, is attributed magical powers. There is evidence that the older Christian and Jewish text which mention a demon or monster called Lilith, and of Persian writings about a destruction goddess Lilith who preys on infants and was bitterly at war with her former husband, but the first evidence of the two merged together shows up later, so it might be the case that the Jewish Lilith story comes from a time period after the Christians split from Judaism.

the doctrines described in the books banned from the bible 2 say that lilith was indeed the first wife of Adam, who refused to "submit" and later became a demon
however, there was a hint at Jewish doctrine compilation, which means it might not be true.
there is a demon-lore that a certain Lilith does exist and there are plenty of succubus who would pretend to do many evil things in the name of mythology just to subvert a saint, if they could deceive

Lilith was the first wife of Adam and refused to be sub-servant to him, so God turned her out of the Garden and created Eve.

Lilith is not mentioned in the Bible.
She is a character derived from extra Biblical sources (Hebrew folklore).
