In the story of Adam and Eve, Adam had eaten of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and had become godlike after eating the forbidden fruit (Genesis 3:22: "And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us...") - except that he was not immortal. If he also ate of the Tree of Life, he would be equal to the gods and immortal. It was against this eventuality that God had to banish Adam and Eve from the Garden and place a cherub and a flaming sword there, to block the way back to the Tree of Life. A cherub was apparently a sphinx-like being with wings and the head of a lion.

What creature guards Eden after Adam and Eve were expelled?

A:After Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden, God placed cherubim to block the path back to the Tree of Life. Cherubim is a Hebrew plural form, which could be transliterated for greater clarity as 'cherubs' (although we normally use the Hebrew plural).It appears that cherubim were sphinx-like creatures with human heads, the bodies of lions and two wings.
