The same word occurs in Song of [[Solomon]] 4:13 , "Thy shoots are an orchard (the Revised Version margin "paradise") of pomegranates." according to Liddell and Scott, <i> '''''paradeisos''''' </i> occurs first in Xenophon, who always uses it of the parks of [[Persian]] kings and noblemen. Like many other quadriliterals the word is undoubtedly of eastern origin. It seems to connote an enclosure. It is used in Septuagint of the [[Garden]] of Eden.
