Africa and Middle east were one land in ancient times. According to creation account, Firmament in the sky was created first, then earth with water and land mass were created before YHWH put the decoration pieces. The land mass placed at the equator between tropic of Cancer and tropic of Capricorn was the perfect ideal place for habitation with plenty of sunlight and moon light for healthy living with proper marking of Time-Period( Weeks, Months and Years) The center of the land mass with thick vegetation was chosen as the Garden of Eden for first human settlement. The Bible account does not give the details on the thousands years of life on this earth. The account is very brief making science skeptical about creation the universe. But evolution theory has failed to explained origin of humans and life so far. There seems to be a long gap unexplained by the Bible. During the long gap period may have been the period of ice meltdown from the arctic, movement of the earth that slowly drifted the land mass apart through millions of years. Due to this transition of the earth surface, the homeland of Adam and Eve at the center of the land mass could have shifted location today and is often identified around that region from Africa to Middle East. We must know that Africa and Middle east were together in one location in ancient time. We must also know that the rivers mentioned in the Bible may not be located in the exact place of ancient times due to environmental and geological changes. We can only roughly get the idea of the location of Eden. Earth was destroyed by flood. It is possible that YHWH landed Noahs Ark in the garden of Eden. It is also possible that YHWH identified the garden of Eden as the promised land with Mount Zion equivalent to Yerushala-yem as the holy mountain, where once even Lucifer dwell as a favourite angel of YHWH. The reason why this particular spot on earth has always been in limelight explains how YHWH has kept the memory alive; that humans do not forget where YHWH marked his portion of his Holy Land in the past and will be restored in the future. Our duty today is to walk in the covenant of YHWH. The is rest is to be done by YHWH. Restoration does not depend on us. It depends on YHWH.
