Bible Question (short): Hell - Soul destroyed? Suffer forever?

Question (full): What do the Scriptures say about eternal suffering in Hell vs. destruction of the soul itself?

The verse above (Matthew 10:28) and others appear to indicate that the norm is eventual destruction of the soul itself.

Other verses, however (like Matt 25:46), appear to indicate eternal suffering.

And still others (Mark 9:47-48) focus more on the eternality of Hell itself.

It seems clear from Rev. 14:11 that at least those who worship the beast and-or receive his mark will burn forever. However, Matt 10:28 (as referenced above) indicates that the soul can be and is destroyed.

I have an earlier question related to this that can be accessed by searching under this same verse (Matt 10:28), and I closed it off after getting some excellent answers from kalos and JonnyRay49423 at that time. However, I'm looking for a little extra detail on the Scriptural statements this time.
