Hi Brothers and Sisters!
I hope all is well. I have a question for you concerning Genesis 13:10
"And Lot lifted up his eyes and saw that the Jordan Valley was well watered everywhere like the Garden of the Lord...
When the Garden of the Lord is mentioned,is this?
1. Moses referring the reader back to earlier references to the garden in Genesis?
2. Mose's indicating that traces of the Garden still existed in Abraham's time and its former beauty was local common knowledge among the inhabitants (which would narrow down its true location) or...
3. Was this just Lot's imagination conjuring up remembered images of the Garden when he looked east?
Grammatically, Genesis is sometimes a tough read for me not knowing which tense to place such statements and whose perspective is represented.
Thanks ahead of time...In Him...Ken
