What was it that sent a man to hell BC ? Or better still how was man doomed to eternal torment ? . I have just got through reading from Genesis to just past the flood and seen no mention of eternal torment so far.

So we know all have sinned so does this mean all born prior to the cross are in eternal torment ? including all the patriarchs who were born in sin and shapen in iniquity.

Nope...Jesus died for all the elect; past, present and future.

No he died for the sins of the whole world . Behold the Lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world John 1 : 29.

Come to think of it are there any eternal torment scriptures in the OT ?

There are tons especially in the New Testament which Jesus talks about but you will use the ol' lexicon game to shoot them down much like people who say the bible does not speak of homosexuality being a sin.
