The name (and word) Heaven literally mean "sky" - as in the phrase "the heavens opened" (meaning that it rained).

I disagree that it means "paradise". It means "Heaven". Heaven is a paradise, but someone did not make up the word "Heaven". It's a real word. It was in the bible, for Heaven's sake! (pun not intended).

The word 'Heaven' was not in the Bible; it is an English word and is used in your English TRANSLATION of the Bible to describe what you think of as Heaven, but it could just as easily be called 'paradise'. The term Paradise has also long since been used for 'Heaven'.

In the Bible Heaven is a place where God, and His angels dwell.
