Domus Voluntatis ) , apparently a city of Syria, situated on Mount Lebanon, the seat of a native king, threatened with destruction by the prophet ( Amos 1:5, where the Auth. Vers. renders it "house of Eden"); probably the name of a country residence of the kings of Damascus. Michaelis ( Suppl. Ad Leg.

Baur ( Amos, p. 224), in accordance with the Mohammedan tradition that one of the four terrestrial paradises was in the valley between the ranges of the Libanus and Anti- Libanus, is inclined to favor the same hypothesis. But Grotius, with greater appearance of probability, pointed to the Paradise ( Παράδεισος , Park ) of Ptolemy (5, 15) as the locality of Eden.
