At a Glance
This study presents Eden as the center of biblical sacred-space theology: the primordial temple mountain where God dwelt with humanity and commissioned human beings as royal priests. It traces the garden’s sanctuary imagery, Adam’s vocation, the serpent’s divine-council setting, Second Temple interpretations of cosmic rebellion, and the promise-plan’s movement toward Christ and the New Jerusalem.
What This Study Explores
- Eden as the archetypal temple and cosmic mountain
