Description
This is the very first garden, a world before the appearance of humanity, before history and choice. Yet at the same time, it is the Land of Israel, where we already stand. We are within that same garden, witnessing its radiance, both as a reflection of the primordial Eden and as the promise of the Promised Land. Light and its reflection connect the beginning with the future. Paradise here is neither lost nor something awaiting us ahead: it continues to exist within the Land itself, as the possibility of life, hope, and a return to wholeness.
From the “Before and after Eden” series by Golda Koosh.
