尽管地球的其余部分落在人类的罪下，但出于某种原因，伊甸园受到不同的对待。也许它来自天堂，是上帝的住所，并被移植到地球上。我们不知道。但是我们确实知道这一点：上帝来到伊甸园和亚当和夏娃{创世记3：8}一起拜访，在秋天后，亚当和夏娃被从花园里驱逐出境之后，他将不再这样做。
(Though the rest of the earth fell under human sin, Eden was for some reason treated differently. Perhaps it had come from Heaven, God's dwelling place, and was transplanted to Earth. We don't know. But we do know this: God came to Eden to visit with Adam and Eve {Genesis 3:8}, which he would no longer do after Adam and Eve were banished from the Garden after the Fall.)
