Genesis 3 21:24
21: Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
22: And the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become as one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat and live for ever”—
23: therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the Garden of Eden to till the ground from whence he was taken.
24: So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the Garden of Eden cherubims and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
Open For Discussion
Now comes to the conclusion of the story of Eden. As we had discussed the narration of a stern God. The story of Eden concludes a potent tail. For that of creation of Eden and the much life that flows on forth.
One depiction of the story of Eden is from innocence to adult hood.
Two babes born and enter the world of childish wonders and innocence.
Eventually they grew to maturity and responsibilities had to follow. And such responsibilities and hard work it is. They can never go back to being sucklings. Responsibilities in turn comes with adulthood and vice versa.
Second depiction of the story of Eden is all about the dark and the light.
Humanity has all the potentialities of being absolutely barbaric or being absolutely pristine. We are all both, dark and the light. We all know Love and Fear. It is up to us to choose to conservate love and connection within us and choose a life of true wonder and joy.
Eden in this depiction appears to be a specific location. Yet Eden in its self is the vast lush earth and seas. Therefore, the narrator had to depict a location for the tree of knowledge in order for there to be context.
21: And Adam/Man and Eve/Woman has clothes now to wear to hide their nakedness.
22: And now we acknowledge that Adam/Man now knows judgement and from judgement Man now must eat from the tree of Knowledge, and forever that knowledge will be within Human Kind.
23: Now Man can move on from His roots and go to whence he came from.
24: And now Adam/Man and Eve/Woman can now go out and venture through the lands and live their life. Thus, God placed guardians to watch over the tree of knowledge and the path there to. Guardians whom keep the way of life and those whom search to.
