Great, Thank You Brother, since I am new, I will repost it as a note. Do you think you could then address the content? Would then these experts be correct? HELL. This is the word generally and unfortunately used by our translators to render the Hebrew Sheol, or:"aidhs, and once Uanatos, 2 Sam. xxii. 6: Inferi or Inferna, or sometimes Mors). We say unfortunately, because although, as St. Augustine truly asserts, Sheol,with its equivalents Inferi and Hades, are never used in a good sense (De Gen. ad Lit. xii. 33), yet the English word Hell is mixed up with numberless associations entirely foreign to the minds of the ancient Hebrews. It perhaps have been better to retain the Hebrew word Sheol, or else render it always by " the grave " or " the pit." Ewald accepts Luther's word Holle; even Unterwelt, (the underworld, place of the dead) DR. WILLIAM SMITH'S DICTIONARY OF THE BIBLE; Page 1038 |

Great, so you cannot refute what I posted? Job 15:23 He wanders abroad for food, saying, Where is it? He knows that the day of darkness and destruction is already close upon him. Job 26:6 Sheol (the place of the dead) is naked before God, and Abaddon (the place of destruction) has no covering [from His eyes]. Job 33:18 He holds him back from the pit [of destruction], and his life from perishing by the sword [of God's destructive judgments]. Ps 55:23 But You, O God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of destruction; men of blood and treachery shall not live out half their days. But I will trust in, lean on, and confidently rely on You. Prov 13:13 Whoever despises the word and counsel [of God] brings destruction upon himself, but he who [reverently] fears and respects the commandment [of God] is rewarded. Prov 27:20 Sheol (the place of the dead) and Abaddon (the place of destruction) are never satisfied; so [the lust of] the eyes of man is never satisfied. [Prov. 30:16; Hab. 2:5.] Is 13:6 Wail, for the day of the Lord is at hand; as destruction from the Almighty and Sufficient One [Shaddai] will it come! [Gen. 17:1.] Jer 17:18 Let those be put to shame who persecute me, but let me not be put to shame; let them be dismayed, but let me not be dismayed. Bring on them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction. [see Jud 1:12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Rev 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.] Ezek 38:16 And you shall come up against My people Israel like a cloud to cover the land. In the latter days I will bring you against My land, that the nations may know, understand, and realize Me when My holiness shall be vindicated through you [vindicated and honored in your overwhelming destruction], O Gog, before their eyes. Hos 13:14 Should I ransom them from the power of Sheol (the place of the dead)? Should I redeem them from death? O death, where are your plagues? O Sheol, where is your destruction? Relenting and compassion are hidden from My eyes. [I Cor. 15:55.] 2 Pet 3:16 Speaking of this as he does in all of his letters. There are some things in those [epistles of Paul] that are difficult to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist and misconstrue to their own utter destruction, just as [they distort and misinterpret] the rest of the Scriptures.
