Not hard to understand? What you are answering is only making me more confused. What garden in the wilderness? All the Torah says is that there was a place called "Eden" and G-d planted a garden in it. With a name like Eden, it would be kind of weird if we're talking about a desert.It's a descriptor, relating to the idea of a garden in the desert/wilderness. Not hard to understand.

This doesn't really tell us where Eden is located. Also, it doesn't tell us about the climate at the time. The Saharah desert wasn't always a desert.Located where? Near four rivers.. in the desert.
Genesis 2:10-14
And a river is going out from Eden to water the garden, and from thence it is parted, and hath become four chief [rivers]; the name of the one [is] Pison, it [is] that which is surrounding the whole land of the Havilah where the gold [is], and the gold of that land [is] good, there [is] the bdolach and the shoham stone; and the name of the second river [is] Gibon, it [is] that which is surrounding the whole land of Cush; and the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel, it [is] that which is going east of Asshur; and the fourth river is Phrat.

Maybe there's no such thing as paradise. It's like picking a house or hotel based on the pictures on the website and then getting there you realize it's a hot mess.What was evil doing in paradise?
Wasn't Eden next to some major rivers? That's hardly "desert".It's a descriptor, relating to the idea of a garden in the desert/wilderness. Not hard to understand.
Ever seen pics of the Nile? There are thick green bands on either side of plants and stuff. Desert ecologies don't apply.Located where? Near four rivers.. in the desert.
It never happened. Adam and Eve got an upgrade and God got angry and kicked them out. It's a story about two kids growing up.so what was the cause for the fall?

I mean, if you want a miracle, Eden should've been in the Sahara or something without a drop of rain. THEN I'd be impressed.
