    Oh Hell!!!

    Some background information and history about Capernaum to give you perspective. Capernaum means "village of Nahum." The Book of Nahum is a short prophetic book which contains a strong prophesy against the city of Ninevah, capitol of Assyria. It prophesied its utter destruction. Capernaum was...

    Oh Hell!!!

    Yeshua' warnings were extremely strong about the fires of "Gehenna." Again, was speaking to the "chosen" people, "And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be...

    Oh Hell!!!

    "Yeshua says that the fire of Gehenna is "unquenchable" and one in which God can 'destroy the body and the soul.' That does not sound like a fire of a 'city dump.' As we go through some of these passages, I cannot over stress that fact that Yeshua did not utter these words at the local bar, or...

    Oh Hell!!!

    If it be the name of endless torment, then literal fire is the sinner's punishment. (Mark 9:43-48) Gehenna is never said to be of endless duration, nor spoken of as destined to last forever, so that even admitting the popular ideas of its existence after death, it gives no support to the idea of...

    Oh Hell!!!

    Which brings us to the Lake of fire. First, the Greek words of "lake of fire" in Revelation is not Gehenna. Now if Gehenna or Hell really reveals the terrible fact of endless woe, how can we account for this strange silence? How is it possible, if they knew its meaning, and believed it a part of...

    Oh Hell!!!

    Neither Yeshua nor his apostles ever named it to Gentiles, but only to Jews, which proves it a locality only known to Jews, whereas, if it were a place of punishment after death for sinners, it would have been preached to Gentiles as well as to Jews. It was only referred to twelve times, on...

    Oh Hell!!!

    According to what I have gathered so far, Gehenna is never mentioned in the Apocrypha as a place of future punishment, as it would have been, had such been its meaning before and at the time of Yeshua. No Jewish writer, such as Josephus, or Philo, ever used it as the name of a place of future...

    Oh Hell!!!

    I have come to learn that the Hebrew word "Sheol" should never have been translated "Hell." The Jews today, whose Bible consists of the Old Testament do not translate it "Hell" because in no way does "Sheol" correspond with the images and doctrines the church associates with the word "Hell." The...

    Oh Hell!!!

    The English word "Hell" occurs 54 times in the King James Bible, and is a translation of 4 Hebrew and Greek words. Not one of the words has a meaning even closely related to the meaning theologians have given the English word "Hell." Many Bibles translated in the last one hundred years do not...

    For your information.;.. The Greek word "tartarus" occurs one single time in the entire Bible and it is found in 2 Peter 2:4. It is the place where sinning messengers (angels) are reserved unto judgment.

    Oh Hell!!!

    Returning to "Gehenna," one can walk through this valley even today and return unscathed by its fires and untouched by the worms (maggets) which actually consumed a good part of the religious Priestly community of Israel in the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. Their bodies were piled up and...

    King Josiah, in his days, desecrated this place by tearing down all the idols, crushing or burning them, and burning human bones on them (probably those of the priests who presided over these rituals). A Jew was not allowed to touch anything that touched a dead human being. Please note, it was...

    Oh Hell!!!

    Another Greek word "Gehenna" occurs 12 times in the New Testament; 11 times in the Gospels and one time in the Epistle of James. Yeshua used "Gehenna" about 7 times. Some of the occurrences of "Gehenna" are in parallel passages, that is, they refer to the same event. "Gehenna" is the Greek form...

    Oh Hell!!!

    "Hades" occurs 11 times in the King's Textus Receptus. When I studid "Hades," it was triggered by the statement found in Acts 2:27 that said Yeshua was in "Hell." Can you picture Yeshua' in "hell-fire" writhering in pain like some of those Gothic pictures?

    Oh Hell!!!

    There is a problem here. In 1 Cor. 15:55, the King James' Greek text contains the Greek word "Hades." They translated the Greek word "Hades" into the English word "grave," but they gave an alternative translation "Hell" in the margin. In Rev. 20:13,14, The Greek Text contains the word "Hades"...

    Oh Hell!!!

    That the King James translators did not understand what "Sheol" and "Hades" meant is proven by the following: "Out of the belly of hell (Sheol) cried I." (Jonah 2:2) Verse 1:17 tells us he was "in the belly of the fish for three days and three nights." Where was Jonah-in Hell or in a fish? If...

    The transliterated spelling of these words comes from Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible. The only Hebrew word translated "hell" in what is commonly called the Old Testament, is the word "Sheol." "Sheol" occurs 65 times. It is translated "hell" 31 times, "grave" 31 times, and "pit" 3...

    When I tell believers about God's victorious love and grace, that God through Yeshua "will draw all men" (John 12:32); "all men to justification of life" (Rom. 5:18,19); "in Yeshua shall all be made alive" (1 Cor. 15:22-28); "to head up all in the Yeshua" (Eph. 1:10); "That in the name of Yeshua...

    Christ our Passover [Lamb of God] is sacrificed for us.... But that doesn't answer the "whole of it".. that just shows Yeshua is the Passover lamb.
