Iraq/Iran
Although we do not know the exact location of the Garden of Eden we do know that
the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are found in the countries of Iraq & Iran and
thus near the Garden of Eden. Tradition has located Eden south of the ancient
city of Ur in Iraq. Some people believe that the names have changed and that the
Garden of Eden was really located in the land of Egypt between the Blue and
White Nile rivers.

The slide shows the traditional route of the Exodus. Some say that this route
went through the land of Midian that Moses had become familiar with when he fled
to the land of Midian to avoid the prosecution for killing the Egyptian. The
more popular route to Canaan was the northern route along the
Mediterranean. That route had a variety of Egyptian military posts which would
likely have resulted in many conflicts with the remaining Egyptian army units
that had been detailed to these outposts.

Tabernacle outer wall surrounding the courtyard was about 150 by 75 feet or
about 50 by 25 meters. (An American football field is 300 by 75 feet). The outer
linen wall was held up by wooden posts with bronze bases and silver tops. The
linen was white except at the entrance door which was purple and blue and
scarlet colors. Just inside the outer wall door was the altar of burnt offering which was
made of wood overlaid with bronze. The alter was about 7.5 feet square (2.5
meters). Next came the laver which was a large bronze basin used by the priests
to wash before entering the tabernacle. The Tabernacle tent itself was over a
frame of acacia wood. The wood was overlaid with gold which created two golden
walled rooms within the tent. The tent coverings were 4 layers thick of blue,
purple, scarlet tapestry on the inside layer covered with goats hair cloth,
followed by a waterproof covering of ram’s skins dyed red and finally an outer
layer of fine waterproof leather. The Tabernacle was divided into two rooms. The
first room was the Holy place in which was the Menorah, Altar of Incense and
Table of Shewbread and the second room was the “Most Holy Place” or sometimes
called the “Holy of Holies” in which was the Ark of the Covenant. The High
Priest was only allowed to enter this room once per year. The two rooms were
separated by a double curtain.

Assyria was based in what is now the northern part of Iraq. The Assyrian empire
became an important empire between 1500 and 1100 BC and lasted until conquered
by Babylon in about 600 BC. A few hundred years later the Assyrian empire came
and overwhelmed the Israelite nation. The Assyrians liked to take large numbers
of the conquered people back to other parts of the empire and then replacing
them with people from other countries. That this happened in 2Kings 17:6, 24+
and 2Kings 18:31-32. Tiglath-pileser III conquered Israel and oppressed Judah.
Judah was made to pay tribute. When Judah rebelled the Sennacherib the king of
Assyrian came in and conquered Judah but left Jerusalem alone. The religion of
Assyria was very similar to that of the Babylonians.

Babylon was based in what is now the southern part of the country of Iraq.
Babylon was first an important power in about 1850 BC and then later in about
650 BC when they overcame the Assyrian empire. Although the oldest known
alphabet comes from the Canaanites, the oldest known writing comes from the
Babylonians.

The Persian empire first became prominent about 550 BC when King Cyrus conquered
the Babylonian empire. Daniel was in exile in Babylon when the Persians
conquered that city. Cyrus allowed many Jews to return to their homeland. Esther
became queen to king Xerxes I. The Jews were allowed to take back many temple
treasures and rebuild the temple as described in the stories of Exra and
Nehemiah. The Persians controlled lands from Egypt to as far as India and as far
north as modern day Turkey. They held their empire for about 200 years. In 333
BC, Alexander the great defeated them. Persian religion was based on the life of
a herdsman.
