Read an excerpt

In the second letter to the Corinthians, chapter 12, the apostle Paul refers to an experience he had, which is related to his transition into a state of ecstasy in paradise, in the third heaven. The Apostle does not reveal details of this experience to us. He only tells us that he does not even know whether he was taken there with his body or without it, and that he heard words that no human can say or is allowed to say. Since Paul does not go into further details in his narration, it is interesting to see how the apocalyptic literature describes paradise and, of course, the throne of God that is located in the heavenly realm. For these texts, paradise is the future place of rest for the righteous. This place is sometimes presented as an intermediate stage, where souls await the day of judgment, and other times as the final dwelling of the righteous, where they are led immediately after death or it is their destination after the resurrection and judgment.

When reference is made to an earthly paradise, it is always identified with the Garden of Eden, but other times it is located in the third or fourth heaven, where man sheds his earthly garment and wears the garment of glory. In 1 Enoch, four different descriptions of Paradise are distinguished. It is placed in the east and is uninhabited. It is called the "garden of righteousness" and has many large, fragrant trees. Among them is the tree of wisdom. Its height is like that of a pine, its leaves like those of the carob tree, and its fruit like grapes. The angels eat its fruit and gain wisdom. The angel Zotiel guards the entrance to Paradise.

In another passage, the place of residence of the saints and the places of rest of the righteous at the end of the heavens are mentioned. In Paradise are the righteous who, together with the angels, intercede, mediate, and pray for humans. Righteousness and grace flow before them. When the righteous and the elect stand before the "Lord of spirits," they shine like flames. They glorify and praise God. The vigilant raise a thrice-holy hymn, and the four archangels, Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, and Phanuel, bless and pray.
