Bible Question: Where is eden located? |
Bible Answer: Dear Allen0229, According to my "Halleys Bible Handbook," twenty-fourth edition, p.64: "It was on the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers, at their junction with the Pishon and Gihon (Gen. 2:10-14). The Pishon and Gihon have not been identified. The Euphrates and Tigris rise in the Caucasus mountain region of southwest Asia, flow southeastward, and empty into the Persian Gulf. Thus man may be said to have been created at about the center of the earth's surface; for this Caucasus-Euphrates region is the approximate center of the Eastern Hemisphere, which is the largest of the two Hemispheres. Ethnologists quite generally consider this region to have been the original home of all the present races of men. It was the region from whence came the ox, goat, sheep, horse, pig, dog, apple, peach, pear, plum, cherry, quince, mulberry, gooseberry, vine, olive, fig, date, almond, wheat, barley, oats, pea, bean, flax, spinich, radish, onion, and most of our fruits and vegetables. The cradle of the human race." Only very recently have some been deciding that man originated in deep Africa. I have seen this on Discovery Channel and other modern scientific television programs. I believe it is an attempt by the enemies of the Gospel to rewrite history in our days. I hope this is of some help to you. Itiswritten |
