This event will not lead to an extinction but to a higher state of being, often referred to as Eden or 5D consciousness.
I have striven to lead thee into &peid (Eden) to teach thee of its beauties, and thou wouldst not!
The concept of the Garden of Eden has been a subject of extensive interpretation and scholarly debate, particularly in relation to ancient Near Eastern texts and traditions.
One significant theory posits that the Biblical Eden can be identified with the Sumerian city of Eridu.
This theory suggests that the "plain" of Babylonia, known as "Edin" in Sumerian, is the geographical reference for Eden.
It is described as having roots of bright lapis lazuli planted in the cosmic abyss and is depicted with cherub-like figures standing beside it, reminiscent of the guardians of Eden in the Bible.
The term "Edin" in Sumerian, meaning "desert" or "steppe," is argued to be etymologically related to the Hebrew "Eden." This connection is supported by Akkadian texts, where "edin" is translated as "plain" or "steppe," reinforcing the geographical and linguistic ties between the Biblical Eden and Mesopotamian locations.
The iconography of the Assyrian Sacred Tree (AST) and its connection to the Garden of Eden has been explored through various scholarly works.
In the Bible, the serpent is often portrayed negatively, particularly in the story of the Garden of Eden, where it is depicted as an evil being that tempts Eve.
It was on a Friday that Adam entered Eden.
I keep it short and labeled on the pyramid, the cross, and the Garden of Eden.
The pyramid, the cross, and the Garden of Eden: Donnelly’s four rivers N/S/E/W as a directional parallel to Tekthah’s Cross.
from the highest antiquity by the races of the Old and New Worlds, we learn that it is a reminiscence of the Garden of Eden, in other words, of Atlantis.
And this land was the Garden of Eden of our race.
"The Buddhists and Brahmans, who together constitute nearly half the population of the world, tell us that the decussated figure (the cross), whether in a simple or a complex form, symbolizes the traditional happy abode of their primeval ancestors--that 'Paradise of Eden toward the East,' as we find expressed in the Hebrew.
They were far famed in antiquity; for it was there that springs of nectar flowed by the couch of Zeus, and there that the earth displayed the rarest blessings of the gods; it was another Eden." (Ibid., p.
It is the Garden of Eden of the Hebrews:
"And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
And the Lord God took the man and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it." (Gen.
41), "Now the garden (of Eden) was watered by one river, which ran round about the whole earth, and was parted into four parts." Here in the four parts we see the origin of the Cross, while in the river running around the whole earth we have the wonderful canal of Atlantis, described by Plato, which was "carried around the whole of the plain," and received the streams which came down from the mountains.
But here is the same testimony that in the Garden of Eden there were four rivers radiating from one parent stream.
And not only do we find this tradition of the Garden of Eden in the Old World, but it meets us also among the civilized races of America.
And in Plato's account of Atlantis we have another description of the Garden of Eden and the Golden Age of the world:
Let us look at the question of the identity of the Garden of Eden with Atlantis from another point of view:
If, then, the original seat of the Hebrews and Phœnicians was the Garden of Eden, to the west of Europe, and if the Phœnicians are shown to be connected, through their alphabets, with the Central Americans, who looked to an island in the sea, to the eastward, as their starting-point, the conclusion becomes irresistible that Atlantis and the Garden of Eden were one and the same.
The Pyramid.--Not only are the Cross and the Garden of Eden identified with Atlantis, but in Atlantis, the habitation of the gods, we find the original model of all those pyramids which extend from India to Peru.
Faber, in his "Origin of Pagan Idolatry," placed artificial tumuli, pyramids, and pagodas in the same category, conceiving that all were transcripts of the holy mountain which was generally supposed to have stood in the centre of Eden; or, rather.
Faber is correct in his opinion that the pyramid is a transcript of the sacred mountain which stood in the midst of Eden, the Olympus of Atlantis.
We find everywhere among the European and American nations the memory of an Eden of the race, where the first men dwelt in primeval peace and happiness, and which was afterward destroyed by water.
3:22-23), God expels Adam and Eve from Eden to prevent them from eating from the tree of life and living forever.

3:22-23), God expels Adam and Eve from Eden to prevent them from eating from the tree of life and living forever.
But any preacher knows there are issues here; every preacher knows there’ll be dragons.[7:22] That’s part of my motivation in writing the Eden series—to say let’s get real, let’s talk about what’s in the texts, let’s talk about the problems of believing that God is the way Jesus says he is, and then trying to square that with what’s in the Old Testament.
[15:02] Something my wife Ruth and I had to think about with our kids—they’ve sort of followed Daddy as he’s been doing this research journey that’s led to "Escaping from Eden," "The Scars of Eden," "Echoes of Eden," and of course they ask, "What are you writing about today, Daddy?" and I have to find some way of explaining it in a way that makes sense to a seven-year-old, an 11-year-old, and a 13-year-old.[15:31] Years ago, there was an Archbishop of Canterbury, Michael Ramsey, who said the role of the scholar is not to make simple things complex; it’s to make complex things simple.
I asked, "Did you ask him?" She said, "Yes, I did put my hand up and ask him to explain why he sees it that way, and he gave an answer, but I’m not sure he really believed what he was saying."[17:25] I thought, "Oh good, if you can pick that up—that the teacher doesn’t really believe this, he’s not convinced by it, doesn’t like the answer he has to repeat—then you have got the wherewithal to navigate these kinds of questions that adults wrestle with."[17:52] In that way, I think we prepare our kids to do their own thinking, to be willing to listen to all kinds of points of view, and then do the math for themselves.[18:00] I’ve heard from a number of people who will say, "I grew up in a traditional Catholic family, and my mom was very devout, and she’d take us to Mass every week, and she would always make sure that we knew our catechism, but then she’d also tell us the stories of our family, the stories of our people, the stories of our land.[18:13] They are stories of a non-human presence, stories of abductions, stories of hybridizations, stories of higher human cognitive abilities that we might call psychic abilities or clear sight or clear audience, stories about an invisible team of helpers.[18:31] It delights me to hear those stories, and it’s often from Scottish and Irish families who’ve been Catholic families, where they have maintained the Celtic heritage alongside the Catholic heritage.[18:48] In "Echoes of Eden," I talk about families who’ve maintained their Catholic heritage alongside their indigenous heritage, so there’s this whole mix of story for the children to think about and ask questions about from the get-go.
[29:01] The flood is very widely recurring, and what I learned through researching "Escaping from Eden" is that the flood narrative coincides with the creation narrative of a lot of cultures.
Nephilim may be a word for various demographics who are bigger than your average human being—a couple of different groups.[35:54] Then you’ve got these other entities called the Bene Elohim—they’re not explained, but I argue in "Escaping from Eden" that Elohim means the powerful ones.
What Moses repeated was the sound he heard, and then he had to think, "What does that sound mean?"[41:45] Generations of theologians have had to ask, "What does that sound mean?" Yahweh sounds the way it does because we’ve inserted vowels into the Tetragrammaton to make it pronounceable, and when we do that, it makes the H’s almost silent.[41:39] In "Echoes of Eden," I point out that H’s in Proto-Semitic were not silent—they sounded like this: chhh.[41:49] Now, if I tell you that all around the world there are stories of our ancestors being governed by beings that were as violent and punitive and hungry for beef, gold, and virgin girls as Yahweh appears to be in the Bible, if you go to Mesoamerica, you will read about feathered serpents or what we might call dragons called Kukumatz or Kukulkan or Quetzalcoatl.[42:24] Go to Georgia, it’s the Caucasus; Japan, you’ve got the Akuchi or Kuchi-dera; go to Spain and Portugal, Pacoca; go to Greece, it’s the Drakos.
He shares insights from his book "The Invasion of Eden," which parallels narratives from different cultures depicting entities feeding off the terror and essence of humans.

Having reached Eve's tent, Eblis uttered a deep sigh—it was the first that had been heard in Eden, and it was caused by envy.
Now this skin had been pink and horny, so that they had been invulnerable in Paradise, and they were left naked and with a tender skin which could easily be lacerated; but, as often as Adam and Eve looked on their fingernails, they remembered what skin they had worn in Eden.
At that time, Mars was almost like an Eden, but conflicts created much instability.
If you add up the ages, starting with the birth of Adam to the birth of Noah, and then add Noah’s age at the time of the flood (600 years), the total time from the Garden of Eden to the flood is:
At the seventh hour, Adam married Eve; at the eighth, Cain and his sister were born; at the ninth, they were forbidden to eat of the tree; at the tenth hour Adam fell; at the eleventh he was banished from Eden; and at the twelfth, he felt the sweat and pain of toil.
