Where was Eden, and does it matter?

[eprom]

I’ve recently launched a web site that puts forward an Israeli location for Eden and I’m looking for critical feedback. The proposition may seem trite, but I believe it has implications in a number of areas that affect Biblical studies including, Soteriology, Pneumatology, Eschatology, and Hermeneutics. The site is far from finished, and does need a bit of editing, but there’s already a lot of information here to review, drawing from Biblical, Historical, and Scientific evidence to support this proposition. You can review the site at:

So . . . is this very ground which saw the first sin & fall, be the very place of redemption and restoration? Any feedback is welcome!

My thinking is the flood would have changed the face of the earth so that the Tigris and Euphrates we know now may not the where it was before the flood. Having said that, Moses wrote after the flood so the fact that he mentioned the location in relation to the rivers could mean that they may have remained in the same place.
