'''Eve''', or ''Chavvah'' in Hebrew, is translated as “life-giver,” from the root ''chavah'' “to live”—hence “mother of all living.”<ref>Gen. 3:20.</ref> According to H. P. Blavatsky, ''Leva'', or “''heva'',” is a transliteration from ancient Hebrew for the name ''Eve'' (pronounced ha’va or ya’va) and is contained within the Hebrew name for God ''Jehovah''—or “''Jodheva''” (''Jod'' or ''Yodh'', meaning “Adam”; and ''heva'', meaning “Eve”).
