Register or Login to view.The third heaven contains paradise according to the Second Book of Enoch, (it seems the Apostle Paul believed that as well, and consequently so did many early Christians), and Wastl & Feger pointed out that the rectangle in the lower right rosette looks a lot like representations of paradise on medieval maps.

About this detail, I think Ellie Velinska is right: the two structures are rectangular tents or baldaquins, with hanging fringes and supporting poles. I can't see how they could be the four rivers of paradise.
