The passage in Genesis 2:10 – 14, which describes a single river flowing out of Eden and then dividing into four distinct headwaters: the Pishon, Gihon, Hiddekel, and Euphrates, is far more than a geographical note. It paints a profound picture of the source of life, blessing, and divine intention radiating from God's perfect creation and carrying symbolic weight for us as His spiritual garden today.
The very act of a single river originating in Eden and then branching out suggests a central source of all spiritual provision and blessing emanating from God's presence.
