Garden of Eden : ウィキペディア英語版 | Garden of Eden
The Garden of Eden (Hebrew גַּן עֵדֶן, ''Gan ʿEḏen'') is the biblical "garden of God", described most notably in the Book of Genesis chapters 2 and 3, and also in the Book of Ezekiel. The "garden of God", not called ''Eden'', is mentioned in Genesis 13, and the "trees of the garden" are mentioned in Ezekiel 31. The Book of Zechariah and the Book of Psalms also refer to trees and water in relation to the temple without explicitly mentioning Eden. Traditionally, the favoured derivation of the name "Eden" was from the Akkadian ''edinnu'', derived from a Sumerian word meaning "plain" or "steppe". ''Eden'' is now believed to be more closely related to an Aramaic root word meaning "fruitful, well-watered."〔 The Hebrew term is translated "pleasure" in Sarah's secret saying in .〔(H5731 Eden ) – The same as H5730 (masculine); Eden= "pleasure" ... the first habitat of man after the creation; site unknown〕 The story of Eden echoes the Mesopotamian myth of a king, as a primordial man, who is placed in a ''divine garden'' to guard the tree of life. In the Hebrew Bible, Adam and Eve are depicted as walking around the Garden of Eden naked due to their innocence.〔Donald Miller (2007) ''Miller 3-in-1: Blue Like Jazz, Through Painted Deserts, Searching for God'', Thomas Nelson Inc, ISBN 978-1418551179, p. (PT207 )〕 Eden and its rivers may signify the real Jerusalem, the Temple of Solomon, or the Promised Land. It may also represent the divine garden on Zion, and the mountain of God, which was also Jerusalem. The imagery of the Garden, with its serpent and cherubs, has been compared to the images of the Solomonic Temple with its copper serpent (the nehushtan) and guardian cherubs. ==Biblical narratives==
