    One thing I'll never forget from my time in the Marines from 1999-2007 was being in Iraq in 2003. I was a door gunner on a CH-53 when flew over and circled Babylon. Even spent some time at the mesopotamian marshes where the three rivers converge.
    I think back to that often, because I grew up leaning about it and then being there in person makes it really special. Obviously, I wish it was under different circumstances.

      ​​@scottpageusmc do you remember the dust storm that halted the invasion into Southern Iraq for several days?
      I learned around 2007 about the Marsh people who lived in the delta. They had been rebelling against Saddam Hussein. So the Iraqi Army had constructed canals to drain the delta to go after the marsh people. That dust storm occurred because the Delta had been dried up by the Iraqi Army.

      It is my belief anything that existed before the flood no archeological evidence will be found. Due to destructive forces of coming and receding flood waters and total tectonic plates shifting during the flood, no evidence would be found. Nor the lands would be in different places or changed all together.
      The most logical thing I've heard about the four rivers is from God Culture and they caim all for rivers are under the oceans. They show evidence of what could've been rivers. But do I believe? Th jury is still out, but it is the most logical explanation I've seen.

Now, many years later watching this video it brings back many things I had forgotten. Mostly, I'm in wow that I was there and didn't even realize I was traveling and camping in areas of a biblical river that lead to Eden. It's sorta of a surreal moment for me now.

      I am Christian of Türkiye (aramaic suryoye) and I inform you that :
      The Rapture of the Church will take place in winter 2024 on a very specific day and at an equally specific time without any festive celebrations around so that no one knows the day or the hour.... because usually it's precisely modeled on holidays which is why I found the exact date...
      The Holy Convocation was sent to the Church on Tuesday March 5, 2024 corresponding to Heshvan 10 (symbolically Day when GOD clarifies to Noah that it is time to bring the animals into the Ark because in 7 days the DELUGE will therefore begin on 17 Heshvan) for his departure on the evening of Tuesday March 12, 2024 corresponding to Heshvan 17... i.e. after the 120 years of construction of the Ark here 120 days which are the number of days since the start of the Tribulations on the evening of Sunday November 12, 2023.
      PS: 120 days is for the dead (Tuesday evening) but it will be 121 days for the living (Wednesday)... read the other comments to better understand!
      ALL MY CALCULATIONS AND BIBLE STUDIES ARE IN ADEQUATE WITH THIS PERFECT DATE AND NO OTHER SERIOUS POSSIBILITY EXISTS FOR ME... I THINK SERIOUSLY THIS IS THE TERMINUS OF THIS PILGRIMAGE ON EARTH!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL

Also, although the landscape has changed after the flood, we have to bear in mind that Moses wrote Genesis after the flood. And the context clues he gave could be applicable to the post-flood landscape.

    You do understand that with your proposal you are looking at the flow of the rivers backwards. It states that one river splits into 4 rivers, but in your proposal you have it as 4 rivers converging into one river.
    The whole thing in that book about they describe the 4 rivers flowing into one from down river is just trying to fit puzzle pieces into places they don't belong.
    And even if you want to believe it is that way then Eden would be the Persian Gulf. Or at least sunken and would be part of the Persian Gulf floor.

    I did very much enjoy this documentary,however while watching one detail came to mind. The flood happened long after the description of Eden’s location and changed the earth’s landscape drastically. Nothing is still where it once was as everything was changed by the waters and ground levels changing. And as beautiful as it would be to find Eden I believe the garden was a heavily garden placed here on earth by God to walk and fellowship among his beloved creation and was removed after the fall when man could no longer dwell among God in the same manner. The only issue I see rising from this is comments below questioning if the flood of the Bible even occurred. This is a corner stone of the foundation of our faith and cannot be in question without causing doubt to the faith, Psalm 11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? God Bless you brother and your ministry I pray you continue in the work God has you doing and may many souls find God and salvation through what you do for the kingdom of heaven Amen.

When they exited the ark over a year later they were in a completely different area on a completely different topography.

I also follow Iranian Nomads who are many moving from the mountains closer to the cities. I also follow families across the world who live off the land….BUT THIS ONE FAMILY FROM AN ANCIENT TRIBE…..take you on walking exploring tips up the water fed creveces of those treacherous mountains almost reaching the heads. They mention tribes who came from those areas…it is SO BEAUTIFUL…I TOLD MY HUSBAND IT LOOKS LIKE THE GARDEN OF EDEN! They also eat from the trees and gather resin from some in the drier areas…but there are fruits, nuts, berries, wild herbs etc. It is I believe close to that area you are researching but over the border to Iranian mountains! I never saw so much fast flowing water! Trees also look like the ancient type of cedars…shorter and spread out more like oaks….it is incredibly beautiful….in that desolate land of Iran. I wish I knew what town they are near. I watch mostly how they build and eat and survive but often they take these video trips climbing the watered crevice almost to the top, then find a place to build a fire, have their tea and cook over the fire…rest then clean the area and go back down climbing on edges far above the ground below….it looks like a garden of Eden! You can follow them on CZcams called “Daral - Iranian lifestyle” it’s mostly 2-3 sons, a Mother and Father. I hope you get to see the latest walking trip which was on 1-28-2024 I believe. God Bless your efforts! I always wanted to be an Archeologist but at 77 yrs old I’ll just explore online!🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 looking at their climbing will show you what God may have created near the Garden of Eden….also its somewhere you can’t go to…so enjoy!

    My own father worked for many years , over two decades , in Abu Dhabi , Qatar and then Dubai as a Civil Engineer . Amongst his skill set he could find water and rock sources , useful for building roads , docks and runways . He wondered what would happen when the oil reserves depleted and knew there were massive areas of desert which actually had sub surface water and soils good enough to grow desert hardy plants such as Castor oil . When trying to develop a home vegetable garden , a hobby he had taken up , in his out of town Dubai garden he found decent soil hidden under the desert sand . he was able to grow q lot of vegetables provided he was thoughtful about water use . His firm even built a special green house in his garden with hydroponic systems to experiment with castor oil plants . My point really though is that the Gulf , Persian Arabian whatever , might have been , probably was , a much greener place in the past , much more wide spread than the river delta at the closed end . Water and land both can raise and lower over time for various reasons ; I think the Gulf is sea water flooded at present .
    PS The islands of Bahrain are worth a look as possibly being part of the garden of Eden ..... Bahrain has sweet water springs all over it's islands ..... In Qatar , in 1972 , I was taken to a large farm growing mainly tomatoes . The area consisted of a limestone low lying plateau . The farm was in a naturally formed depression , formed I think by collapsed cave systems , which had water not far below the surface . There were two places my father took me , in much the same area , where caves had collapsed leaving entry points ; we could hear running water but did not enter the caves fearing dangerous animals like very large lizards , seen on roads at night and or wild dogs , never mind the spiders . Lol

There is no guarantee that Rivers today with similar names, such as the Euphrates, are the same rivers, but rather they are more likely to be different Rivers that were given similar names to the previous Rivers by Noah’s descendants after the Flood.
    Also one river flowed out of Eden and split into 4 Rivers not the other way around, see Gen 2:10 Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads.

    It’s probable that the flood drastically changed the surface of the earth and the earths crust. With tectonic plates breaking apart when the fountains of the deep came forth. With all the shifting of land when they landed with the ark it’s possible they just renamed the rivers they saw because they reminded them of the land before the flood so they borrowed the names even though they weren’t the same rivers.

    Joel, this was once again a riveting presentation. I never watch other podcasters all the way through because I lose interest, but not with yours. You are teaching us about our heritage in God. What you share is so rich and I am grateful to hear what you have to say. It makes me happy to see your son and the way he is going, and the adventures that y'all have together.

    This is groundbreaking work, Joel. Many thanks. When I was working on my PhD, Dr. Phyllis Bird, a renown scholar whom I respect, told me that there existed only 2 out of the four rivers in question. That is what she was taught, but now I see that this idea is mistaken. Your video is very clear and convincing. Many OT commentaries have to be rewritten. May God continue to use and bless you. Keep up the good work. I have subscribed to your channel. Eye opening work for many who doubt God’s word.

      Only 2 of the known named rivers are known. The other is conjecture and has a different name. It might be correctly the 3rd river, or that could be another river like the Pishon, waiting to be found. But his conjecture makes sense.

    I found the whole search fascinating, I have read of course about the 4 rivers but to actually find the unknown one is fabulous.
    I can only imagine how beautiful the whole area surrounding Kush or the cities established by the Annunaki was when the Tigris and the Ephrates fed the marshes. No wonder Eden was built in this area, the lush soils of the time and clean fresh water supply certainly made it an Eden!

    /new Testament brings it together in reference to "one's mindset," bringing God's work and word to current times💯

      Joel has a video where he gently but thoroughly explains to a Mormon how the Holy Bible is the true Testament, as opposed to the Book of Mormons.
      I wonder how many Mormons have actually read the Bible.
      Additionally, how many Christians have actually read the Holy Bible. A lot of preachers teaching lies.

      Because if they read something that contradicts LDS doctrine they simply can say the Bible was mistranslated. That is their standard excuse.

      @@gebswife Many have read the bible. I was raised RLDS, which is the oldest. There are Cutlerites, Hedrickites which came before LDS . My father was an elder and minister in the RLDS church. I have had Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants, I have been to Nauvoo and Carthage jail to see where Joseph was murdered (inside job BTW) and Independence.
      I got my first book of Mormon at age 12.....By 18 I had left the church, because I knew it was a cult...my father left and mother left after me, and eight of the nine kids in my family left and disavow it.
      As an Adult I was re-baptized in a Baptist Church....but most regular Mormons do not know the hidden lies .... But they do read the Bible....and explain it away. But many leave the church as adults who are not LDS, because they get out in the real world and see....BTW, YES I have read the Bible cover to cover. And just began again on Jan 1st...(not my first time) I finish Exodus tomorrow. But as to your question....every Mormon I knew had a KJV Bible.
