In Kabbalah, Eisheth Zenunim (Heb. אֵשֶׁת זְנוּנִים, "Woman of Whoredom") is a princess of the qlippoth who rules Gamaliel, the order of the qlippoth of Yesod.[1] She is found in Zohar 1:5a as a feminine personification of sin.[2] In Jewish mythology, she is said to eat the souls of the damned.

In Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Legacy saga, Eisheth is one of eight angels who follow Elua. She was noted for being gentle. In the series, she is noted as the patron angel of music, medicine, and art, and associated with the sea. Her province is Eisande.
