Reason: Had to omit some scrips, takes up too much space
I must admit this is a long thread, even though I edited it and tried to make it concise.
I again apologize. I'll try not to make the same mistake twice.
God Bless

Actually you have missed a few passages. There are 54 Scriptures that have translated sheol, hades, gehenna, and tartaroo as hell in the K.J.V. What you have not presented are the passages that are rooted in the same word sheol in Hebrew, and which the K.J.V. translators saw fit to translate as "pit" or "grave".
And then we come to the New Covenant where in the K.J.V. we read "O death, where is thy sting: O grave, where is thy victory." Or, should it?
It should read "O death, where is thy sting: O hell, where is thy victory."
Grave= a/&dhß= hades
So, we now have added to the 54 passages, the passages translated as grave or pit, and the passage in 1 Cor. 15:55 translated as grave, from hades/ a/&dhß.
As Teddy Ruxpin PhD (The talking bear) would say..."something is not quite right."
The Hebrew word Sh@'owl is not translated as hell in 29 Scriptures, instead opting for grave. Some of them are....
Gen. 37:15
"And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into the grave (sh@'owl) unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him."
To be consistent, it should read...
And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him: but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into hell unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him.
Gen. 42:38
"And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if mischief befall him by the way in which ye go, then shall ye bring my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave/ (sh@'owl).
To be consistent, it should read....
And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if mischief befall him by the way in which ye go, then shall ye bring my gray hairs with sorrow to hell.

The Hebrew word Sh@'owl is not translated as hell in 29 Scriptures, instead opting for grave. Some of them are....
1 Samuel 2:6
"The Lord killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up again."
It should read....
The Lord killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to hell, and bringeth up again.
Job 14:13
"O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldst appoint me a set time, and remember me."
It should read....
O that thou wouldest hide me in hell, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldst appoint me a set time, and remember me.
As Teddy Ruxpin PhD (The talking bear) would say..."something is not quite right."
The Hebrew word Sh@'owl is not translated as hell in 29 Scriptures, instead opting for grave. Some of them are....
Hosea 13:14
Quote:
I will ransom them from the power of the grave (sh@'owl); I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave (sh@'owl) I will be thy destruction; repentance shall be hid from mine eyes.
This passage should read....
I will ransom them from the power of hell; I will redeem them from death.' O death, I will be thy plagues; O hell I will be thy destruction; repentance shall be hid from mine eyes.

You know, that was me being religious;
If you check the date I started the thread
I have changed a lot.
It doesn't matter to me if it's 54,000 names and places.....
As long as i don't go there. and as long as I broke free from religiosity
and Legalism. it's okay and it's a freedom that cannot be expressed in words
God Bless

This cannot be acceptable to us. God will be the destruction of hell? Where has eternal hell gone?
