        Dante’s “Comedy” has three sections or volumes. The first section is the hell, the second one is the purgatory (in other words a place for being purified from sins) and the third is the heaven. Her book involves one hundred rhymes. Every section (volume) consists of ten layers. There are two special numbers in this book; one of them is 3 which is a symbol of trinity and the other is 10 which is a symbol of unity. Dante’s trip starts from the hell then goes to the purgatory and purifies himself; finally, he moves to the heaven. “Ardavirafnameh’’ is one of the writings which had a great influence on Dante. Ardaviraf is a Zoroastrian person who reports his seven-day fanciful trip about what he has seen. Manuscript profile

        The present article analyses the quality and nature of two Jewish and Zoroastrian journeys of the afterlife namely “Book of Ardaviraf” and “Dream of Enokh” while expressing their similarities and differences. The main characters of both works (Viraf&Enokh) are great men of their nation who experience this spiritual journey and visit heaven and hell and walk with creator of the universe and finally they come back to their people with great experiences and instructions. They inform people of what they have observed. In the “Dream of Enokh” the way the universe was created and how it works systematically is also explained but this article mainly focuses on the differences of Heaven and hell in these works.
