Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with Eden is παράδεισος (paradeisos), Strong's Greek #3857, which is used in the Septuagint and the New Testament to describe a garden or paradise.

Usage: The term "Eden" primarily refers to the "Garden of Eden," a paradisiacal location described in the Book of Genesis. It is depicted as a place of perfect harmony, beauty, and abundance, where the first humans, Adam and Eve, lived before the Fall. The word "Eden" conveys the idea of delight and pleasure, reflecting the garden's idyllic nature.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, gardens were often associated with divine presence and blessing. The Garden of Eden is portrayed as the original dwelling place of humanity, where God walked and communed with Adam and Eve. It symbolizes the ideal state of creation, unmarred by sin. The concept of Eden has influenced Jewish, Christian, and Islamic thought, often representing a lost paradise or the ultimate goal of restoration and redemption.
