Genesis 2:8-14, Revelation 22:1-2

The flood changed the entire earth, but there was nine witnesses of the earth before and after the flood (Noah and his family)

Vs. 8: Eastward in Eden
In order for us to determine where “eastward” is, we need a second reference point, which is not given
Eastward could be translated as a time word instead of as a place. It could be the word “before” in the old
language.

Vs. 9: Tree of Life
God placed Adam & Eve and gave them dominion over everything in the garden, including this tree.

Vs. 10: River of Life
One river came out of Eden, and it parted into four separate rivers.

Vs. 11 & 12: River #1 - Pishon
It was in a land of gold
It could’ve flowed possibly to Egypt and Ethiopia

Vs. 13: River #2 - Gihon
Currently, the Gihon River is located now around Jerusalem
Before the flood, it possibly flowed to Ethiopia
I Kings 1:33,38, 45
2 Chron. 32:30
2 Chron. 33:14

Vs. 14: River #3 - Hiddekel (Currently the Tigris River)
Mentioned in Daniel 10:4, which puts it in the Assyria, Persia area
River #4 - Euphrates
Flows to the Persian Gulf

Revelation 22:1,2
This text refers to the New Heaven & the New Earth
Will be similar to Eden with a Tree of Life and a River of Life

Ezekiel 28:12-16
Satan in Eden
Satan is referred to in this text as the King of Tyre, in God’s Holy Mount
Where is the Holy Mount? Daniel 9:16 - Jerusalem, the Holy Mountain

The Bible points to Jerusalem to be where He created Adam and Eve and placed them in the Garden of Eden.
