Gardens @ mentioned in Scripture, of Eden Genesis:2:8-9); Ahab's garden of herbs (kjvKings:21:2); the royal garden ( 2Kings:21:18); the royal garden at Susa Esther:1:5); the garden of Joseph of Arimathea John:19:41); of Gethsemane John:18:1). The "king's garden" mentioned 2Kings:25:4, Nehemiah:3:15, was near the Pool of Siloam. Gardens were surrounded by hedges of thorns Isaiah:5:5) or by walls of stone Proverbs:24:31). "Watch-towers" or "lodges" were also built in them Isaiah:1:8; Mark:12:1), in which their keepers sat. On account of their retirement they were frequently used as places for secret prayer and communion with God Genesis:24:63; Matthew:26:30-36; John:1:48 John:18:1-2). The dead were sometimes buried in gardens Genesis:23:19-20; 2Kings:21:18 2Kings:21:26 1Samuel:25:1; Mark:15:46; John:19:41). (See PARADISE.)
