Do you think the Garden of Eden was located in the Persian Gulf near the Tigris and Euphrates River?
Author: admin | Category: After EdenThere is a controversy, do you think the Garden of Eden was in the Persian Gulf, or in the suspected location of the Gihon Spring in Jerusalem?
And, and I know this may sound hilarious, some religions believe that the original Garden of Eden was located in Jackson City, Missouri! Where do you think the tree that held the serpent of the Devil was located when the devil presented himself to Adam and Eve? Some historians believe that it was in Iran on the Persian Gulf, but some historians believe it was in Jerusalem in Israel.
Here is what I think, but I am still working on it…….
The only thing the Bible tells us concerning the Garden of Eden’s location is found in Genesis 2:10-14, “A river watering the garden flowed from Eden; from there it was separated into four headwaters. The name of the first is the Pis-hon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold…The name of the second river is the Gi-hon; it winds through the entire land of Cu-sh. The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.” The exact identities of the Pis-hon and Havilah rivers is unknown, but the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are well known.
If the Tigris and Euphrates mentioned are the same rivers by those names today, that would put the Garden of Eden somewhere in the Middle East, likely in Iraq. It cannot be mere coincidence that the Middle East region is where the planet was most lush—the place where the Garden of Eden was placed. If oil is, as most scientists believe, primarily decayed vegetation and animal matter that has decomposed, then this is the area where we might expect the greatest deposits of the substance we call oil. Since the Garden was the epitome of perfection, it stands to reason that the decomposition of the earth’s most perfect and lush organic materials would produce vast stores of the earth’s best oil.
People have searched for the Garden of Eden for centuries to no avail. There are various locations that people claim to be the original location of the Garden of Eden, but we cannot be sure. What happened to the Garden of Eden? The Bible does not specifically say. It is likely that the Garden of Eden was completely destroyed in the Flood or that it lies decomposing into oil buried beneath centuries of sand deposits.

If you believe the B S about the garden of Eden being the place where Human life began, then it was somewhere around the area that’s is now known as Ethiopia.
Where all human life began

In the cuneiform texts it was the plain of Babylon, known by the inhabitants of Edinu as "edin" or the fertile plain.

I want to thank you for that question. I seen the one answer saying it was a myth. I feel so sorry for that person. I say Isreal to answer your question. I say that because Jesus was the king of kings and king of the Jews. Jews are the "choosen" people. Since Isreal was so important throughout the bible it only make sense.

Some consider the plateau of Pamir to be the original Eden. This probably was the homeland of Adam’s descendants up until the time of the Flood. Today it’s known as the Tarim Basin or Eastern Turkestan. This region is surrounded by a ridge of very high mountains forming a gigantic basin in the midst of them. It measures 1,000 miles long and is about 350 miles wide

AFRICA.
THE HEBREWS WHERE A BLACK NATION.
THE TWELEVE TRIBES WERE A BLACK NATION.
BEFORE IT WAS CALLED AFRICA.
THE BLACK HEBREWS LEFT EGYPT; WENT TO JERUSALEM; ESCAPED OVER THE MOUNTAINS INTO WHAT IS NOW CALLED AFRICA.
THEY WERE SHIPPED TO THE NEW AMERICA; BUT IT REALLY WASN’T NEW TO THE NATIVES LIVING THERE ALREADY!
YAH SENT THE BLACK HEBREWS TO THE FOUR CORNERS OF THE WORLD AND THEY HAD MIXED BABIES;
NOW EVERY MIXED RACE GENERATIONAL POOL ARE OF THE HEBREW RACE.
EVERY PERSON MIXED WITH THE BLACK BLOOD OF THE HEBREW SLAVE TRADE IS A PART OF THE TRIBE OF ISRAEL.
SO; WHEN THE WHITES USE TO SAY; GO BACK TO AFRICA; IT WAS JERUSALEM; THAT’S WHERE THEY CAME FROM.
ASK YOUR ‘ROMAN AUTHORITIES!"
NOW YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE STORY.
FIND YOUR TRIBE.
