In the original series, Kaworu refers to the first Angels as the "mother of all existence" and states that "all that is born from Adam should revert to Adam".

In the Kabbalah, Adam is described as a God or the beginning of all things, and the being to which all must revert.

Furthermore, the Kaballah refers to the state of mentally/spiritually perfect humanity as Adam Kadmon, but the relationship between this and Adam in the series is unclear. The etymology of the word "Adam" is currently unclear, but there are theories that it is related to "earth", "red" and "create". In Yoshiyuki Sadamoto's official manga of Evangelion, Gendo swallows the embryonic Adam and gains the ability to manifest an AT Field. This is inspired by the belief that Eve, the first Biblical woman, was created using the body of Adam. Cells cultivated from Adam serve as the basis for all Evangelion units except for Unit-01, which is grown from cells cultivated from Lilith. Ryoji Kaji later delivers the embryonic Adam to Nerv commander Gendo Ikari, who later grafts it to his right palm and, in The End of Evangelion, tries to physically merge Rei with Adam by pushing his right hand into her body. The failure of the experiment results in the brief appearance of a "giant of light" resembling an Evangelion unit, the occurrence of Second Impact, and Adam being reduced to an embryonic form while its soul is reincarnated in Kaworu Nagisa. Adam is discovered within the White Moon buried under Antarctica and, during the Katsuragi Expedition, is subjected to a "contact experiment" with the Spear of Longinus. In the spin off video game Neon Genesis Evangelion 2, it is stated that Adam and the White Moon were planted by an unknown " First Ancestral Race" as the intended progenitor of life on Earth. All Angels, except for Lilith and the Lilin, are descended from Adam and possess the "Fruit of Life", the source of the Angels' power and immortality (also known as S² Engine). The first Angel is Adam ( アダム, Adamu), named for the first human created by God in the Book of Genesis in the Abrahamic beliefs. The word " angel" itself is derived from the Greek for "messenger" (ἄγγελος, angelos), which is also the source of the word " Evangelion". While the original Japanese word used in the series to refer to the Angels is shito ( 使徒, disciple, apostle), as opposed to the typical translation of "angel" as tenshi ( 天使, messenger of heaven), the English translation was one specified by Gainax. At another point, it is stated that the Angels are merely different evolutionary paths that mankind could have taken. Using the Biblical story of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the Angels are described as having eaten the "Fruit of Life", giving them immortality.


While the first fifteen Angels are descendants of Adam, humans themselves descended from Lilith. The first two Angels, Adam and Lilith, are the progenitors of the other sixteen.

Even though they are composed of an altogether different form of matter ("characterized by both particulate and wave properties, like light") the Angels' genetic code bears a 99.89% similarity to humans. Though they all have very different forms and abilities, Angels are often depicted with several common elements, such as the projection of AT fields, an internal power source called S² engine, and an externalized core, the destruction of which is often the only way an Angel can be defeated.
