JewishEncyclopedia.com - EDEN, GARDEN OF

JewishEncyclopedia.com - EDEN, GARDEN OF: "The Talmudists and Cabalists agree that there are two gardens of Eden: one, the terrestrial, of abundant fertility and luxuriant vegetation; the other, celestial, the habitation of righteous, immortal souls. These two are known as the 'lower' and 'higher' Gan Eden. The location of the earthly Eden is traced by its boundaries as described in Genesis."
