Purchase Hell by Eitan Bar at https://amzn.to/417ANZ8 For centuries, many Christians have been indoctrinated to believe in the Augustinian view of Hell, a vivid picture of a fiery hellfire where God is said to sadistically torment most of humanity by burning their skin for all eternity. But is this really the picture Scripture paints? Does the Bible, a collection of Jewish documents, truly claim Hell to be God's cosmic fire chamber where people are being sadistically tortured endlessly? If not, then how do we reconcile horrific biblical images, such as the Lake of Fire or worms consuming bodies supposedly forever? Are these literal descriptions, or perhaps ancient Jewish metaphors, misunderstood and mistranslated by the Western mind, evident by the fact that four distinct words—'Gehenna,' 'Sheol,' 'Tartarus,' and 'Hades'—were all mistakenly translated into the same English word "Hell"?
