Garden Theology: From Eden to the Empty Tomb-The Temple

Send a prayer. The Temple: Eden Restored in Jerusalem In Episode 2 of Garden Theology: From Eden to the Empty Tomb, Pastor Dee and Bernie step into Jerusalem’s Temple and discover it as far more than Israel’s national shrine—it is Eden remembered and symbolically restored. From carved cherubim and palm trees to the guarded holiness of the inner sanctuary, the Temple replays the garden story: God dwelling with His people, sacred space protected, and access mediated through sacrifice. Together, they trace the deep biblical echoes between Eden’s commission to “work and keep” and the priests’ calling to “serve and guard,” showing how the Temple points beyond itself to Christ—the true Temple—who reopens the way into God’s presence. This episode invites you to see worship not as routine, but as God’s relentless pursuit to bring His people back into communion with Him.https://www.buzzsprout.com/2532509
