Was Noah The Maker Of The Garden?

Noah was the tenth and last antediluvian Patriarch -  this meant that he lived in a time between the fall of man and the flood.  Obviously the flood was an important aspect of man and history, a lot was destroyed and for many days the world was turned into a bath. The Patriarchs lived very long lives and this made them remarkable.  In the Book of Genesis Noah lived 950 years; only two others lived longer then he -  Methuselah (969) and Jared (962).

Noah lived a very long time and he had many brothers, however some have suggested that he may have once been the genius who developed the Garden Of Eden.  He was not considered to be the God who was able to make a garden and man, but some have suggested he could have been.


Noah was a recluse and he was a person who seemed a little mad.  He could have walked through a desert while in a mode of madness and he could have found a garden or even a bed of water.  If he had found a garden he would have called it his own, however if he had just found water he would have needed to have created a garden from scratch.

Let us suggest that he just found water -  all of the tales of the Garden Of Eden have declared that the garden had been near four rivers of water, and so it is quite possible that Noah could have found the location of water before any garden had been made.  With water all a person needs to do is add the seed, and that was how the garden had been made according to Genesis - from seed; the trees and plants had been made by God, and then God used his own flesh and blood to create first man.  Was Noah the kind of person who could have discovered a desolate spot near a body of water and created a garden?  Maybe.


Let us suggest that he was, he would have surely have made himself a garden first.  This is what God was supposed to have done -  he made a pre-mature garden that outdated the Garden of Eden.  Let us suppose Noah made this; he would have been able to practise his skill in cultivation, plantation, and animal husbandry.  With this under his toe it was only a skip and a jump to the development of the Garden of Eden which he made in the likeness of his own Garden before he made man.  The Garden of Eden was said to have been larger, however it was the younger of two gardens and it was made for his children.

Noah could have made his garden, and then made his second garden in which he housed his first two children.  One he could have made from 'eating earth' and the other he could have made from 'pulling out a rib because he had swallowed something that had been able to give life'.  With his two kids alive he was able to give them their garden to play in as he returned to his own garden.

Noah could have ensued a life with a wife, and he could have had his own children with her.  When he travelled with the Ark he had at least three children who had three wives, and they were a small cluster of family.  With the Garden of Eden being ignored by Noah it is possible its life prematurely ended when the waters dried and the land became desert; all that was left by time of the flood was Noah's garden which was smaller but great enough to survive.


The earth changed as the waters rose, and Noah was able to notice the change of water because his garden had been closest to the sea.  So Noah did what anyone would have done if they had seen the flood-waters rise -  he made a boat; but not just any boat -  he made a boat from the trees in his garden.

It is possible he created the boat from the wood of any kind of tree of knowledge or fruit tree that flourished in his own garden.  He then filled the boat with all of his animals, and then he waited for the water to flood his garden.  The boat was swept away until it came to a mountain where it possibly crashed against rock.  There were many casualties as a result of this crash -  however Noah, his wife, his children, and a handful of animals survived.

When the water receded Noah vacated from his ship.  He vacated with his family and they walked until they were able to settle on a farm nearby.  There they lived a simple life until the day each of them died, and supposedly their bodies rest in peace under the soil.


Perhaps the Garden of Eden has been overblown by myth?  Perhaps Noah did found the Garden of Eden after he had made his own garden in a secluded place?  Was this seclusion how he managed to live such a long life as wars rose and died all around the other countries?  Perhaps. 

If Noah was the maker of the garden of Eden, and the animals on his boat were more then just animals they were also the animals that lived in his own private Garden and made by him. it is possible Noah could have been the star that had been outlined as God who created the beginning of mankind.  However if this were true would the bible be a lie since Noah was not supposed to be God himself?  If Noah had made the Garden Of Eden would the bible be a false tale as Noah was not supposed to be God?  Would this change the Bible?  Would this change belief? Has the Bible blown up tales and forgotten about true fact?  Was Noah the creator of the Garden Of Eden but not actually God himself?
