the Garden of Eden：伊甸園
Gustav Briegleb說，如果被賦予了太多的自由，人們就會像在伊甸園中那樣為所欲為。那么這句話是從何而來呢？神秘的伊甸園又是什么樣子的呢？就讓我們一探伊甸園的奧秘吧。
伊甸園，根據(jù)《圣經(jīng)·創(chuàng)世紀》記載，耶和華上帝照自己的形像造了人類的袓先，男的稱亞當(dāng)，女的稱夏娃，安置第一對男女住在伊甸園中。伊甸園在圣經(jīng)的原文中含有快樂，愉快的園子的意思（或稱樂園）。《圣經(jīng)》記載伊甸園在東方，有四條河從伊甸流出滋潤園子。這四條河分別是幼發(fā)拉底河、底格里斯河、基訓(xùn)河和比遜河。現(xiàn)存的只有前兩條。
上帝的原本旨意是要他們生兒育女，遍滿地面，使整個地球都成為伊甸園。但后來夏娃受蛇的哄誘，偷食了知善惡樹所結(jié)的果子，也讓亞當(dāng)食用，上帝知道后，為了防止他們再吃“生命樹”上的果子而和上帝一樣永遠活著，遂將二人逐出伊甸園。
今天西方人士談及的樂園，想到的就是伊甸園。
The Garden of Eden is a location described in the Book of Genesis as being the place where the first man, Adam, and his wife, Eve, lived after they were created by God. Literally, the Bible speaks about a garden in Eden. This garden forms part of the creation and theodicy of the Abrahamic religions, often being used to explain the origin of sin and mankind's wrongdoings.
The location of the Garden of Eden remains the subject of much controversy and speculation. The creation story in Genesis relates the geographical location of both Eden and the garden to four rivers (Pishon, Gihon, Tigris, Euphrates), and three regions (Havilah, Assyria, and Kush). There are hypotheses that place Eden at the headwaters of the Tigris and Euphrates (northern Mesopotamia), in Iraq (Mesopotamia), Africa, and the Persian Gulf.
Traditionally the location of Eden was considered to be historical. However much of modern critical scholarship now considers it to be only a metaphor symbolizing God's love and favor. For many medieval writers, the image of the Garden of Eden also creates a location for human love and sexuality, often associated with the classic and medieval trope of the locus amoenus.
