Its Location ., Mystery That WIN
Probably Never he solved.
The location Of the earthly paradise
or garden OF Eden Is still matter Of
dispute among orfentalists ana Scriptu-
raj scholars Of highest reputation. Some
have endeavored to locate 1t by the
fruits and mineral productions named
IN the Biblical descript lions as they ap-
pear In the second chapter Of Genesis;
others by the rivers mentioned In
verses IL to IA Of the above mentioned
chapter. The weight Of investigation
and tradition inclines to an agreement
that the Tgris and the Euphrates Of
modern geography are the third and
fourth rivers mentioned In the Biblical
description Of the garden. Those who
agree SO, far differ widely as to what
rivers should now be regarded as the
ancient Pison and Gihon. The Bud
dhistic scholars, although they reject
our Bible In the greater part incline to
the opinion that the Pison Is the sacred;
I Gauges, and that the Gillon is none
other than the Nile. AS to the last, 1t
is altogether probable that they are
correct on that point, because the Bibli-
cal account plainly says that Gihon
'icompasseth the whole land Of Ethi-
opia.' .15s ,s55 s
