Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root עָדַן (H5727), which means "to be soft or pleasant."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry is G3857 (παράδεισος, paradeisos), which is often translated as "paradise." This term is used in the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) to refer to the Garden of Eden and is also found in the New Testament, such as in Luke 23:43, where Jesus tells the thief on the cross, "Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise." The Greek term carries similar connotations of a place of beauty, delight, and divine presence. Usage: The word "Eden" is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, primarily to denote the Garden of Eden, the paradisiacal location described in the Book of Genesis. It is also used in a few other contexts to refer to regions or places associated with abundance and beauty. Context: • Eden in Genesis: The Garden of Eden is introduced in Genesis 2:8, where it is described as a lush and fertile garden planted by God in the east. It is the setting for the creation of Adam and Eve and the narrative of the Fall. The garden is characterized by its abundance, with every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, including the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:9).
