Garden of Eden 에덴 동산 (창세기 2:8)

그림설명: Adam and Eve driven out of Eden Garden
그림 저작권: V. Gilbert and Arlisle F. Beers

성경구절

에덴동산은 사랑의 이미지로써 많은 저자들에게 쓰여져 왔습니다.

기원과 적용

에덴동산은 사랑의 이미지로써 사랑의 정원이란 시를 쓴 William Blake를 포함한 많은 저자들에게 쓰여져 왔습니다. 에덴은 아담과 이브과 창조 되어지고 “one bone one flesh”로 한 몸이 되었던 장소로써 사랑과 결부되어 있습니다. 아담과 이브가 금단의 열매의 한 입을 베었을 때 그들이 서로 벗고 있었다는 것을 처음 알게 된 장소이며 에덴 동산을 성적인 것이 함축 된 곳으로 여기는 이유가 바로 여기 있습니다.
