The garden of eden. Kind of correct.

Nope. Gan eden = a place on earth known as the garden of eden where Adam and eve first lived after their creation and we're later expelled from after committing the sin.

Not at all. While the above answer is correct, to my knowledge, there is a lot more to it. I believe the garden is also tied into the afterlife and/or the post messiah days.

That definitely is true. The question is if there is more to it.

Which is why, I decided to only state as fact, what I knew was fact. Anything else needs to be taken up with someone more knowledgeable.

Correct. Although I must say, there is a whole lot written about those days, and not tons of clear answers.
