I here am some response to your five points.
If you have another meaning for Eden other than plentiful, please do indicate.
Eden itself is a translation of the Hebrew. My point was that you didn't determine the meaning in your article, you only state that it meant plentiful. I'm sure it has many meanings, however the most common translation is that it describes paradise.
- If Ezekiel 28 does not say Eden was a mountain, then what does it say?
Ezekiel 28:13 - You were in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: carnelian, chrysolite and emerald, topaz, onyx and jasper, lapis lazuli, turquoise and beryl.
Ezekiel 28:14 - You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones.
Where does it say Eden was a mountain? Are you interpreting the "You" described to be Eden??
- You have to give your alternative. Please give your alternative interpretation.
Alternative to Ezekiel 28? It is describing a person, or perhaps a metaphor for Cain, but I also don't know I can only speculate. However I would disagree the wording suggests it is describing Eden.
- I am happy that you think Gihon was the Indus River and so you are bringing it to the Indus Valley. But the Dion cannot be Indus because the four rivers have to have a source at one place. I am showing that such four rivers are found at Pushkar in Rajasthan as given in my paper and I'm attaching the same again.
What is the true source of any river? It is rain. It is the water cycle.
The garden of Eden isn't a physical point from which the rivers must start from.
It is the point from which water rises to become clouds, and then rain to fall upon mountains that then become rivers.
- Again, Pishon is the Nile we have to look at the four rivers having their source at one place. Nile and Indus don't work.
If the rivers "don't work" either the rivers are wrong, or the idea that they have to originate as rivers from one physical point is wrong.
The descriptions for the Gihon to be the Indus (Singhi Kamban) and Pishon to be the Nile (Wadi Hammamat as Land of Havilah) are, in my opinion, correct without reasonable alternative.
Hence, see above why they do work.
- I do explore the Mesopotamian location at Qurnah on the shut al Arab in the Persian near the Persian Gulf.
The location, if it existed at all, is under the Persian Gulf waters.
Which is to say, any "physical property" of the Garden of Eden relate to the water cycle, but any "physical location" doesn't exist because there is no physical point from which the rivers must rise from.
