The Persian Gulf Formed when Ice Age glaciers melted and sea levels rose. Before that it was a river valley and dry basin called the “Gulf Oasis”. (Time frame as of Genesis 1:10).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Biblical Genesis the Persian Gulf was already a sea by then, so whales, dolphins, humpbacks, and sharks would\u2019ve been swimming there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Genesis 2:19, Scripture reveals something profound:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name thereof”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember this included the great whales and the rest of the sea creatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today the Persian Gulf still has whales, dolphins and sharks; but just fewer than the open ocean; because it\u2019s now shallower than before the Noah’s flood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the open visions of the garden of Eden as expressed in the book of Genesis; the Euphrates River branches out as part of the Tigris-Euphrates river system, eventually merging with the Tigris to form the Shatt al-Arab, which discharges into the Persian Gulf. It shares tributaries like the Sajur, Balikh, and Khabur, and forms the four rivers of Eden alongside the Tigris, Pishon, and Gihon. (Notably Genesis 2:10 KJV – And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The “Pong Pong tree\u201d (Cerbera odollam); which is known as the “suicide tree”; throughout the ancient of days; is a tree which grows near the coastlines and was also instituted by God in the garden of Eden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It got this reputation because the seeds\/kernels are extremely toxic and have been used for suicide and homicide. The toxin is the chemical compound called “cerberin”, which is a highly potent cardiac glycoside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Genesis 2:25 – we read, that the very moment they both ate of the poisonous fruit which God warned them both, Adam and Eva of; they became naked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Clinically they both died the very moment they munched it’s fruit).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cardiac toxins of it caused immediate cardiac arrest on them; as they were creatures born of flesh and blood; and were not born as Heavenly beings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s more critical here is that Adam couldn’t see that when Eve offered him the fruit; that her body was already clinically dying of it’s poison. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The very presence of “the old serpent” the Devil made this distraction upon him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When God called “Where are you Adam”? that’s the very moment they received back life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember it’s conjunction where Jesus calls out to Lazarus: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(John 11:43b records;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth”); and he came forth similarly out of death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
