Edit links between paradise, the garden of Eden and the forests of Lebanon (possibly used symbolically) within prophetic writings.[17]
Edward Lipinski and Peter Kyle McCarter have suggested that the Garden of the gods (Sumerian paradise), the oldest Sumerian
version of the Garden of Eden, relates to a mountain sanctuary in the Lebanon and Anti-Lebanon ranges.[18]

Proposed locations [edit]

Although the Garden of Eden is considered to be mythological by most


scholars,[19][20][21][22][23][24] there have been other suggestions for its location:[25] for
example, at the head of the Persian Gulf, in southern Mesopotamia (now Iraq) where the
Tigris and Euphrates rivers run into the sea;[26] and in the Armenian Highlands or Armenian
Plateau.[27][28][29][30] British archaeologist David Rohl claims it may have been located in
Iran, and in the vicinity of Tabriz, but this suggestion has not caught on with scholarly
sources.[31]

According to the Bible, the location of Eden is described in the Book of Genesis, chapter 2,
verses 10–14:

A river flowed from Eden to water the garden, and from there it divided to make Map showing the rivers in the
four streams. Middle East known in English as the
Tigris and Euphrates.
The first is named the Pishon, and this winds all through the land of Havilah
where there is gold. The gold of this country is pure; bdellium and cornelian
stone are found there. The second river is named the Gihon, and this winds all
through the land of Cush. The third river is named the Tigris, and this flows to
the east of Ashur. The fourth river is the Euphrates.

Parallel concepts [edit]

The city of Dilmun in the Sumerian mythological story of Enki and Ninhursag is a
paradisaical abode[32] of the immortals, where sickness and death were unknown.[33]
The garden of the Hesperides in Greek mythology was somewhat similar to the Christian
concept of the Garden of Eden, and by the 16th century a larger intellectual association Map by Pierre Mortier, 1700,
was made in the Cranach painting (see illustration at top). In this painting, only the based on theories of Pierre Daniel
action that takes place there identifies the setting as distinct from the Garden of the Huet, Bishop of Avranches. A

The Persian term "paradise" (Hebrew ‫פרדס‬, pardes), meaning a royal garden or hunting- paradise, and of the country

pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire, with spikenard"; Ecclesiastes 2. 5: "I
made me gardens and orchards (pardes), and I planted trees in them of all kind of
fruits"; and in Nehemiah ii. 8: "And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the king's orchard (pardes), that he may give me
timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which appertained to the house, and for the wall of the city." In these
examples pardes clearly means "orchard" or "park", but in the apocalyptic literature and in the Talmud "paradise" gains its
associations with the Garden of Eden and its heavenly prototype, and in the New Testament "paradise" becomes the realm
of the blessed (as opposed to the realm of the cursed) among those who have already died, with literary Hellenistic
influences.
In ancient Hindu mythology, Nandankanan is a garden of the deities where the virtuous souls of the dead can roam
freely.[citation needed]

Other views [edit]

Jewish eschatology [edit]

In the Talmud and the Jewish Kabbalah,[34] the scholars agree that there are two types of spiritual places called "Garden in
Eden". The first is rather terrestrial, of abundant fertility and luxuriant vegetation, known as the "lower Gan Eden". The second
is envisioned as being celestial, the habitation of righteous, Jewish and non-Jewish, immortal souls, known as the "higher Gan
Eden". The Rabbanim differentiate between Gan and Eden. Adam is said to have dwelt only in theGan, whereas Eden is said
never to be witnessed by any mortal eye.[34]

According to Jewish eschatology,[35][36] the higher Gan Eden is called the "Garden of Righteousness". It has been created since
the beginning of the world, and will appear gloriously at the end of time. The righteous dwelling there will enjoy the sight of
the heavenly chayot carrying the throne of God. Each of the righteous will walk with God, who will lead them in a dance. Its
Jewish and non-Jewish inhabitants are "clothed with garments of light and eternal life, and eat of the tree of life" (Enoch 58,3)
near to God and His anointed ones.[36] This Jewish rabbinical concept of a higher Gan Eden is opposed by the Hebrew terms
gehinnom[37] and sheol, figurative names for the place of spiritual purification for the wicked dead in Judaism, a place
envisioned as being at the greatest possible distance from heaven.[38]

In modern Jewish eschatology it is believed that history will complete itself and the ultimate destination will be when all
mankind returns to the Garden of Eden.[39]

Islamic view [edit]

Events taking place in the Garden of Eden are spoken about prominently in theQuran and
the tafsir (interpretation). The term "Jannāt `Adni" ("Gardens of Eden" or "Gardens of
Perpetual Residence") is used in the Qur'an for the destination of the righteous. There are
several mentions of "the Garden" in the Qur'an (2:35, 7:19, 20:117), meaning the Garden
of Eden, but without the word "`Adn".[40] There are other places that talk about events
there, without mentioning the location. This includes surat Sad, which features 18 verses on
the subject (38:71–88), surat al-Baqarah, surat al-A'raf, and surat al-Hijr. The narrative
mainly surrounds the resulting expulsion of Iblis from the garden and his subsequent
tempting of Adam and Eve. After Iblis refuses to follow God's command to bow down to Spanish-Arabic world map from
Adam for being his greatest creation, Allah transforms him into Satan as a punishment. 1109 CE with Eden in east (at top)

Despite the Biblical account, the Quran mentions only one tree in Eden, the tree of
immortality, which Allah specifically claimed it was forbidden to Adam and Eve. Despite this, however, Satan, disguised as a
serpent, repeatedly told Adam to eat from the tree, and eventually both Adam and Eve did so, resulting in disobeying Allah.[41]
These stories are also featured in the Islamic hadith collections, including al-Tabari.[42]

Latter-day Saints [edit]


See also: Adam and Eve (LDS Church)
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (also known as Mormons or Latter-day Saints) believe that after
Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden they resided in a place known as Adam-ondi-Ahman, located in present-
day Daviess County, Missouri. It is recorded in the Doctrine and Covenants that Adam blessed his posterity there and that he
will return to that place at the time of the final judgement[43][44] in fulfillment of biblical prophecy.[45]

Numerous early leaders of the Church, including Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball, and George Q. Cannon, taught that the
Garden of Eden itself was located in nearby Jackson County, Missouri,[46] but there are no surviving first-hand accounts of that
doctrine being taught by Joseph Smith himself. LDS doctrine is unclear as to the exact location of the Garden of Eden, but
tradition among Latter-Day Saints places it somewhere in the vicinity of Adam-ondi-Ahman, or in Jackson County.[47][48]

Art [edit]

The Garden of Eden motifs most frequently portrayed in illuminated manuscripts and paintings are the "Sleep of Adam"
("Creation of Eve"), the "Temptation of Eve" by the Serpent, the "Fall of Man" where Adam takes the fruit, and the "Expulsion".
The idyll of "Naming Day in Eden" was less often depicted. Much of Milton's Paradise Lost occurs in the Garden of Eden.
Michelangelo depicted a scene at the Garden of Eden in the Sistine Chapel ceiling. In the Divine Comedy, Dante places the
Garden at the top of Mt. Purgatory. For many medieval writers, the image of the Garden of Eden also creates a location for
human love and sexuality, often associated with the classic and medievaltrope of the locus amoenus.[49] One of oldest
depictions of Garden of Eden is made in Byzantine style in Ravenna, while the city was still under Byzantine control. A
preserved blue mosaic is part of the mausoleum of Galla Placidia. Circular motifs represent flowers of the garden of Eden.
