 Paradise - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The word paradise is derived from the sanskrit word Paradesha which literally means Supreme Country.
In the Western world it was translitterated in many ways such as the Avestan word of pairidaeza (a walled enclosure), which is a compound of pairi- (around), a cognate of the Greek peri-, and -diz (to create, make) and Armenian word of partez (a garden).
In the New Testament, paradise meant a paradise restored on Earth (Matthew chapter 5, verse 5 - the meek shall inherit the earth), though no reference is made to what condition (paradisaical or otherwise) the Earth would or should be in.
