The Garden of Eden vs The Garden of Gethsemene


"The first Adam began life in a garden. Christ the second Adam, came at the end of his life to a garden
In Eden Adam sinned. In Gethsemane the Savior overcame sin.
In Eden Adam fell. In Gethsemane Jesus conquered.
In Eden Adam hid himself. In Gethsemane our Lord boldly presented himself.
In Eden the sword was drawn. In Gethsemane it was sheathed."

-R. Kent Hughes
