HELL NO!!! -  IT'S GEHENNA!!!!  

by Tuese Ahkiong








The word hell is no where found in Scripture.  The words GEHENNA, HADES and TARTARUS are translated into hell in the following passages by most modern translations:
Matt 5:22, 29, 30; Matt 10:28, 16:18, 18:9, 23:15, 23:33; Mark 9:43, 45, 47; Luke 12:5, James 3:6; 2 Peter 2:4.  

A good question to ask is what did Yeshua and His Apostles mean when using these words?  How did the Israelites of Bible times understand and define the words Gehenna, Hades and Tartarus? 


GEHENNA:
(originally Ge bene Hinnom; i.e., "the valley of the sons of Hinnom"), a deep, narrow glen to the south of Jerusalem, where the idolatrous Jews offered their children in sacrifice to Molech ( 2 Chronicles 28:3 ; 33:6 ; Jeremiah 7:31 ; 19:2-6 ). This valley afterwards became the common receptacle for all the refuse of the city. Here the dead bodies of animals and of criminals, and all kinds of filth, were cast and consumed by fire kept always burning.

HADES: 
Greek term widely used to denote the deity of the underworld and the abode of the dead. The New Testament use of Hades (hades [a&/dh"]) builds on its Hebrew parallel, Sheol (se'ol), which was the preferred translation in the Septuagint.


TARTARUS:
  1. the name of the subterranean region, doleful and dark, regarded by the ancient Greeks as the abode of the wicked dead, where they suffer punishment for their evil deeds; it answers to Gehenna of the Jews
  2. to thrust down to Tartarus, to hold captive in Tartarus

SHEOL:
  1.  the abode of the dead in early Hebrew thought


Only 5 out 27 New Testament Books contain the word, “HELL.”
The word is used 14 times depending on what translation you use.
If hell is so serious, why didn’t Christ and the saints teach more on its severity?
Matthew, Mark, Luke, James, and 2 Peter are the only NT books that have the word HELL.
The word HELL isn't even a translation, it's a replacement for the proper name, proper noun Gehenna, the name of a location outside of Jerusalem where lots of bad stuff happened like child sacrifice, slaughter, dead animals and human bodies were dumped and burned to kill the rotting smell.
HELL is used 12 times by Yeshua, once by James and once by Peter.
Why didn’t Paul teach on it once in all his writings (1/3 of the NT) since he says he declared the whole council of God? Acts 20:27
Why doesn’t the writer of Hebrews mention HELL?
Why doesn’t John who wrote the Gospel, Epistles and Revelation mention HELL?
HELL's absence throughout the 22 out 27 NT books is deafening!
The word and concept is Greek/Egypt PAGAN and does not come out of the Hebrew mindset.

14 verses where Gehenna, Hades and Tartarus are MIS-TRANSLATED and SUBSTITUTED with the pagan word, "HELL!"


1.     Matthew 5:22 (YLT)   but I -- I say to you, that every one who is angry at his brother without cause, shall be in danger of the judgment, and whoever may say to his brother, Empty fellow! shall be in danger of the sanhedrim, and whoever may say, Rebel! shall be in danger of the GEHENNA of the fire.


2.     Matthew 5:29 (YLT)   `But, if thy right eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to GEHENNA.


3.     Matthew 5:30 (YLT)   `And, if thy right hand doth cause thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast from thee, for it is good to thee that one of thy members may perish, and not thy whole body be cast to GEHENNA.

6.     Matthew 18:9 (YLT)   `And if thine eye doth cause thee to stumble, pluck it out and cast from thee; it is good for thee one-eyed to enter into the life, rather than having two eyes to be cast to the GEHENNA of the fire.


7.     Matthew 23:15 (YLT)   `Wo to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye go round the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and whenever it may happen -- ye make him a son of GEHENNA twofold more than yourselves.

9.     Mark 9:43 (YLT) `And if thy hand may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee maimed to enter into the life, than having the two hands, to go away to the GEHENNA, to the fire -- the unquenchable --


10.  Mark 9:45 (YLT)   `And if thy foot may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into the life lame, than having the two feet to be cast to the GEHENNA, to the fire -- the unquenchable --

13.  James 3:6 (YLT)   and the tongue [is] a fire, the world of the unrighteousness, so the tongue is set in our members, which is spotting our whole body, and is setting on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by the GEHENNA.


14.  2 Peter 2:4 (YLT)  For if God messengers who sinned did not spare, but with chains of thick gloom, having cast [them] down to TARTARUS, did deliver [them] to judgment, having been reserved,





BY DOING A HISTORY LESSON ON THE LOCATION OF GEHENNA, a proper noun and proper name of a location south west of Jerusalem.

GEHENNA is to Jerusalem
as China Basin (an area adjacent to the Financial High Rise building of SF) is to San Francisco City.

In the mind of the Jew and their history, Gehenna was a wicked place with child sacrifice and the death of numerous people from NATIONAL JUDGMENT that YHWH brings on them. Dead bodies are burned with fire to kill the stench of death.

The Valley of the son of Hinnom is GEHENNA.

CHILD SACRIFICE

2 Kings 23:10
And HE DEFILED TOPHETH, WHICH IS IN THE VALLEY OF THE SON OF HINNOM, that no one might BURN HIS SON OR HIS DAUGHTER AS AN OFFERING TO MOLECH. 

2 Chronicles 28:1-4 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David had done, 2 but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel. He even made metal images for the Baals, 3 and he made offerings IN THE VALLEY OF THE SON OF HINNOM and BURNED HIS SONS AS AN OFFERING, according to the abominations of the nations whom the Lord drove out before the people of Israel. 4 And he sacrificed and made offerings on the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.

2 Chronicles 33:1-6 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. 2 And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the abominations of the nations whom the Lord drove out before the people of Israel. 3 For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had broken down, and he erected altars to the Baals, and made Asheroth, and worshiped all the host of heaven and served them. 4 And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord had said, “In Jerusalem shall my name be forever.” 5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord. 6 And he burned his sons as an offering in THE VALLEY OF THE SON OF HINNOM, and used fortune-telling and omens and sorcery, and dealt with mediums and with necromancers. He did much evil in the sight of the Lord, provoking him to anger.

YHWH BRINGS NATIONAL JUDGMENT UPON JERUSALEM

Jeremiah 7:30-34
30 “For the sons of Judah have done evil in my sight, declares the Lord. They have set their detestable things in the house that is called by my name, to defile it. 31 And they have built THE HIGH PLACES OF TOPHETH, WHICH IS IN THE VALLEY OF THE SON OF HINNOM, TO BURN THEIR SONS AND THEIR DAUGHTERS IN THE FIRE, which I did not command, nor did it come into my mind. 32Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when it will no more be called TOPHETH, OR THE VALLEY OF THE SON OF HINNOM, BUT THE VALLEY OF SLAUGHTER; FOR THEY WILL BURY IN TOPHETH, BECAUSE THERE IS NO ROOM ELSEWHERE.
33 AND THE DEAD BODIES OF THIS PEOPLE WILL BE FOOD FOR THE BIRDS OF THE AIR, AND FOR THE BEASTS OF THE EARTH, and none will frighten them away. 34 And I will silence in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, for the land shall become a waste.

Jeremiah 19:6
therefore, behold, days are coming, declares the Lord, when this place shall no more be called TOPHETH, OR THE VALLEY OF THE SON OF HINNOM, BUT THE VALLEY OF SLAUGHTER.

Jeremiah 19:11-15 and shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: So will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter's vessel, so that it can never be mended. MEN SHALL BURY IN TOPHETH BECAUSE THERE WILL BE NO PLACE ELSE TO BURY.
12Thus will I do to this place, declares the Lord, and to its inhabitants, MAKING THIS CITY LIKE TOPHETH.
13The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah—all the houses on whose roofs offerings have been offered to all the host of heaven, and drink offerings have been poured out to other gods—shall be DEFILED LIKE THE PLACE OF TOPHETH.’”
14 Then Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the court of the Lord's house and said to all the people: 15 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, behold, I am bringing upon this city and upon all its towns all the disaster that I have pronounced against it, because they have stiffened their neck, refusing to hear my words.”



Have you ever wondered about being in heaven missing eyes, missing hands, missing feet? One does not think of heaven as a place where we arrive maimed, but this is how it’s contrasted with hell where people go in with their whole body.

What if Roman Catholic Pagan translators weren't so eager to switch the word Gehennna for their pagan word Hell that has a completely different meaning, there wouldn't be all this confusion? Gehenna is a proper noun and proper name for a location right outside of Jerusalem with a history of many bad things from child sacrifice to many dead bodies being burned. This is the concept and definition in the mind of the Hebrew and not the pagan eternal fire burning where people are tortured!  see my link for more on how Roman Catholics replaced Hell for Gehenna http://tueseahkiong.blogspot.com/2014/09/jesus-teaching-on-hell-by-samuel-g.html

Would these passages make more sense in light of a NATIONAL JUDGMENT? Ah! Christians were persecuted in the 1st century when the NT Scripture was being written. The Kingdom of Christ was coming in and The Kingdom of the Old Covenant Jews was going out to Gehenna for their sins of breaking covenant especially FOR MURDERING YESHUA and His disciples. Yeshua said that the Jews would be responsible for all blood of the Martyrs from Abel to Zacharia and that they would goto GEHENNA.

Matt23:33 You serpents, you offspring of vipers, how will you escape the judgment of GEHENNA ? 34 Therefore behold, I send to you prophets, wise men, and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify; and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city; 35 that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zachariah son of Barachiah, whom you killed between the sanctuary and the altar. 36 Most certainly I tell you, all these things will come upon this generation.

So, we see throughout the NT that the Jews persecuted the church and Yeshua even says in v34 above that they would kill, crucify, scourge the saints from city to city. Yeshua also says their judgment would come in that first century THIS GENERATION and it did through His servants, The Roman Armies!

Acts 14:22 confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that THROUGH MANY AFFLICTIONS WE MUST ENTER INTO GOD’S KINGDOM.
Matthew 11:12 From the days of John the Baptizer until now, THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN SUFFERS VIOLENCE, AND THE VIOLENT TAKE IT BY FORCE.

FYI, None of the following passages mention heaven. It is because of the incorrect foreign to Scripture word HELL, that saints have been contrasting these passages with HEAVEN. These passages are encouraging the 1st century saints under going persecution from the Jews of the Old Covenant Kingdom as they enter into The New Kingdom of Christ. They are as Acts 14:22 says, going through many afflictions to enter into YHWH’s Kingdom.

Matthew 5:27-30 World English Bible (WEB)
27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery;’ 28 but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. 29 IF YOUR RIGHT EYE CAUSES YOU TO STUMBLE, PLUCK IT OUT AND THROW IT AWAY FROM YOU. FOR IT IS MORE PROFITABLE FOR YOU THAT ONE OF YOUR MEMBERS SHOULD PERISH, than for your whole body to be cast into GEHENNA. 30 IF YOUR RIGHT HAND CAUSES YOU TO STUMBLE, CUT IT OFF, AND THROW IT AWAY FROM YOU. FOR IT IS MORE PROFITABLE FOR YOU THAT ONE OF YOUR MEMBERS SHOULD PERISH, than for your whole body to be cast into GEHENNA. 

Matthew 18:7-9
7 “Woe to the world because of occasions of stumbling! For it must be that the occasions come, but woe to that person through whom the occasion comes! 8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, CUT IT OFF, AND CAST IT FROM YOU. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into THE ETERNAL FIRE. 9 If your eye causes you to stumble, PLUCK IT OUT, AND CAST IT FROM YOU. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into THE GEHENNA OF FIRE.

Mark 9:43-48
43 If your hand causes you to stumble, CUT IT OFF. IT IS BETTER FOR YOU TO ENTER INTO LIFE MAIMED, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire, 44 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ 45 If your foot causes you to stumble, CUT IT OFF. IT IS BETTER FOR YOU TO ENTER INTO LIFE LAME, rather than having your two feet to BE CAST INTO GEHENNA, INTO THE FIRE THAT WILL NEVER BE QUENCHED— 46 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’ 47 If your eye causes you to stumble, cast it out. It is better for you to enter into God’s Kingdom with one eye, rather than having two eyes TO BE CAST INTO THE GEHENNA OF FIRE, 48 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’

UNQUENCHABLE FIRE
UNQUENCHABLE FIRE does not mean an unending fire but a fire that would NOT BE QUENCHED, UNSTOPPABLE, CANNOT BE STOPPED FROM HAPPENING; a judgment that will be COMPLETE IN CONSUMING the guilty. The following 3 passages from Jeremiah speak of a temporal NATIONAL JUDGMENT that falls upon Jerusalem in 586 BC by the Babylonians. The fire is not still burning. This is apocalyptic language describing YHWH's judgment upon Israel. The Jewish mindset was aware that this language of UNQUENCHABLE FIRE was associated with National Judgment. Precisely what the Jews were aware of who heard Yeshua in Mark 9:43.

Jeremiah 4:4
O people of Judah and Jerusalem, surrender your pride and power. Change your hearts before the Lord, or my anger will burn like an UNQUENCHABLE FIRE because of all your sins.

Jeremiah 7:20
So this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “I will pour out my terrible fury on this place. Its people, animals, trees, and crops will be consumed by the UNQUENCHABLE FIRE of my anger.”

Jeremiah 21:12
This is what the Lord says to the dynasty of David: “‘Give justice each morning to the people you judge! Help those who have been robbed; rescue them from their oppressors. Otherwise, my anger will burn like an UNQUENCHABLE FIRE because of all your sins.

Mark 9:43
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It’s better to enter eternal life with only one hand than to go into the UNQUENCHABLE FIRES of hell with two hands.

DESTROYING SOULS WITH SWORDS
Notice how Old Testament Scripture describes souls being destroyed by the sword in NATIONAL JUDGMENTS via invading armies with swords killing people. This means that the soul in this context is not defined as an immaterial part of a person but as their physical body being put to death.

Joshua 10:28
Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king. HE UTTERLY DESTROYED IT AND ALL THE SOULS who were in it. He left no one remaining. He did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.

Joshua 10:35
They took it on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword. HE UTTERLY DESTROYED ALL THE SOULS who were in it that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.

Joshua 10:37
They took it, and STRUCK IT WITH THE EDGE OF THE SWORD, WITH ITS KING AND ALL ITS CITIES, AND ALL THE SOULS WHO WERE IN IT. He left no one remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls who were in it.

Joshua 10:39
He took it, with its king and all its cities. THEY STRUCK THEM WITH THE EDGE OF THE SWORD, AND UTTERLY DESTROYED ALL THE SOULS WHO WERE IN IT. He left no one remaining. As he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to its king; as he had done also to Libnah, and to its king.

Joshua 11:11
THEY STRUCK ALL THE SOULS WHO WERE IN IT WITH THE EDGE OF THE SWORD, UTTERLY DESTROYING THEM. There was no one left who breathed. He burnt Hazor with fire.

Leviticus 23:30
And whatsoever soul it be that doeth any work in that same day, THE SAME SOUL WILL I DESTROY from among his people.

****Now read the words of Yeshua in light of the Jewish understanding of a soul being destroyed during a NATIONAL JUDGMENT. Remember Gehenna was a place were dead bodies were burned and destroyed. Christ was threatening the jews with Gehenna and not some unbiblical pagan word Hell!

Matthew 10:28
Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to DESTROY BOTH SOUL AND BODY in Gehenna.
