In Zoharistic Kabbalah, Eisheth Zenunim is one of the four jinn of sacred prostitution, the mates of Samael. Her fellow succubi are Lilith, Naamah, and Agrat Bat Mahlat. She is found in the Zohar 1:5a-b as isheth zennanim or qodeshah. She eats the souls of the damned in Jewish mythology.

In Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Legacy saga, Eisheth is one of eight angels who follow Elua. She was noted for being gentle. Her province is Eisande.

Eisheth is also a video game character in Kushiel's Debut.
