The Lake of Fire - The Lost Hebrew Idiom
This chapter discusses the ancient origin of the Lake of Fire as discussed by biblical historians as well as nineteenth and twentieth century archeologists. The meaning of the word "hell," Gehenna, the bottomless pit and their connection to the Wady en-Nar, also called the Brook of Kidron, as well as the history and description of the Dead Sea is explained. Also discussed is Sodom and Gomorrah and the "Five Cities" mentioned in the Wisdom of Solomon. This chapter raises the question of God's mercy and why the Lake of Fire is so misunderstood in the western mind. Do evil people who die really go to a literal Hell and burn for eternity? It is answered in this chapter.
