Abstrakt/ Abstract: Eden firstly referred to prehistoric times but later its meaning was also extended to reflections on glory and happy times of that era. Eden, which is still hidden today, will reveal its full glory at the end of the world. In the older Yahwistic tradition, there is a very clear description of Eden. The beauty and fertility of the Eden is the result of the coactivity of human endeavor with God's activity of creation. By committing the original sin, man lost his paradise, i.e. connection with God. The sin of the first people was not that they wanted to be like God, that is, to be similar to God, but that people wanted to be like God immediately, without following him, without being obedient to him.

Kľúčové slová/ Keywords: Eden. Closeness to the Creator. Intimate communion with God. Sin.
