Description
Eden in the text
Eden, also spelled as Edem in the Septuagint (LXX), was a city or region mentioned in the Old Testament. It is referred to as a place conquered by the Assyrians (2Ki.19.12; Isaiah 37:12) and as a trading partner of Tyre (Ezk.27.23). The exact location of Eden is uncertain, but it was likely situated in Mesopotamia or Syria, given its association with the Assyrians and its trade relations with Tyre. It should not be confused with the Garden of Eden, as they are separate places. The biblical references to Eden provide little information about its history or significance, but its mention in the context of Assyrian conquests and Tyrian trade suggests that it was a place of some importance in the ancient Near East.
Relations
Direct connections
Every entity the graph places in a stated relation with this one, grouped by the kind of link. Each relation is authored once and its inverse derived, so both ends always agree. Rows marked “registry” come from the identity spine rather than from a verse, and a row marked “which bearer is the source’s decision” is one where the name could have meant more than one person. The last group is not a relation at all — it counts the events two entities stand in together.
The pattern
Where Eden is named
Every book of the corpus in the order it is read, each as wide as the chapters it holds. A bar is the verses of that book which write the name, and the flat stretches are as much of the answer as the bars.
3 verses across 3 of 66 books; 63 write the name nowhere. Named in 2 Kings (1), Isaiah (1) and Ezekiel (1).
