Eden: Definition and Much More from Answers.com (3034 words)
The text asserts that the Garden was planted in the eastern part of the region known as Eden and that in Eden the river divided into four branches: Hiddekel (also known as Tigris), Euphrates, Pishon and Gihon.
In the Song of Solomon, it is clearly "garden;" in the second and third examples "park." In the post-Exilic apocalyptic literature and in the Talmud, "paradise" gains its associations with the Garden of Eden and its heavenly prototype.
Garden of Eden motifs most frequently portrayed in illuminated manuscripts and paintings are the "Sleep of Adam" ("Creation of Eve"), the "Temptation of Eve" by the Serpent, the "Fall of Man" where Adam takes the fruit, and the "Expulsion".
