A look at the Garden of Eden from the perspective of what it would have meant to the ancient Israelites (it owes much to Professor John's Walton's, The Lost World of Adam and Eve), it isn't the same as what most of us were taught. Adam and Eve are real people, but are they the only people that were alive at the time? Also, why is the Garden a paradise, what makes it that way, and what does this have to do with human mortality? The answers offered are not dogmatic, simply an attempt to understand this text as it was originally intended.
