Christians, does the bible say say where Hell is?

Answer 1

There are seven Hebrew and Greek words that are translated as "hell" and are as follows:

1. Sheol - the unseen world. It always refers to the realm or unseen world of departed spirits. In the KJV, sheol is translated "hell" 31 times, "grave" 31 times, and "pit" 3 times.

2. Qeber - The proper Hebrew word for the grave, is translated six different ways and always of the place where the body goes at death:

Grave (Gen. 35:20; 50:5; Num. 19:16, 18; 2 Sam. 3:32; 19:37; 1 Ki. 13:30; 14:13; 2 Ki. 22:20; 2 Chr. 34:28; Job 3:22; 5:26; 10:19; 21:32; Ps. 88:5, 11; Isa. 14:19; 53:9; Ez. 32:23-24; Nah, 1:14)

Graves (Ex. 14:11; 2 Ki. 23:6; 2 Chr. 34:4; Job 17:1; Isa. 65:4; Jer. 8:1; 26:23; Ez. 32:22-25; 37:12-13; 39:11)

Burial (2 Chr. 26:23; Eccl. 6:3; Isa. 14:20; Jer. 22:19)

Burying Place (Gen. 23:4, 9, 20; 47:30; 49:30; 50:13; Judg 16:31)

Sepulchre (Gen. 23:6; Dt. 34:6; Judg. 8:32; 1 Sam. 10:2; 2 Sam. 2:32; 4:12; 17:23; 21:14; 1 Ki. 13:22, 31; 2 Ki. 9:28; 13:21; 21:26; 23:17, 30; Ps. 5:9; Isa. 22:16; Jer. 5:16)

Sepulchres (Gen. 23:6; 2 Ki. 23:16; 2 Chr. 16:14; 21:20; 24:25; 28:27; 32:33; 35:24; Neh. 2:3, 5; 3:16)

3. Hades - the unseen world. It is the Greek equivalent of sheol in the Old Testament. In the KJV hades is translated "hell" 10 times, and "grave" 1 time.

4. Mnaymeion - This is the proper Greek word for grave and is translated 6 different ways:

Grave (Jn. 11:17, 31, 38; 12:17)

Graves (Matt. 27:52-53; Lk. 11:44; Jn. 5:28; Rev. 11:9)

Tomb (Matt. 27:60; Mk. 6:29)

Tombs (Matt. 8:28; Mk. 5:2-5; Lk. 8:27)

Sepulchre (Matt. 27:60; 28:8; Mk. 15:46; 16:2-8; Lk. 23:53, 55; 24:1-2, 9, 12, 22, 24; Jn. 19:41-42; 20:1-11; Acts 2:29; 7:16; 13:29)

Sepulchres (Matt. 23:29; Lk. 11:47-48)

5. Gehenna - from the Hebrew ge (gorge, valley) and Hinnom, a Jebusite name. It means "valley of Hinnom," where perpetual fires were kept for burning the trash of Jerusalem. Jesus used it as a picture of eternal hell and eternal punishment. It is translated "hell" 12 times.

6. Tartaros (Tartarus) - the deepest abyss of sheol-hades. It is where the angels who "kept not their first estate" are being confined (2 Pet. 2:4) until their judgment.

7. Limnen tou puros (Lake of Fire) - This is the same as the gehenna of fire, the eternal hell and perdition of all rebels against God, and is used 5 times (Rev. 19:20; 20:10-15; 21:8).

Answer 2

It clearly teaches that it is in the lower parts of the earth.
"Therefore it says, :When He(Jesus) ascended on high, He led captive a host of captives, and He gave gifts to men." (Now this expression 'He ascended', what does it mean except that He also descended INTO THE LOWER PARTS OF THE EARTH? He who descended is Himself also He who ascended far above the heavens, that He might fill all things."
(Ephesians 4:8-10)
It say Jesus did this "in spirit", that is, in the spirit realm: "For Christ also died for sins, once for all, the just for the unjust, in order that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, BUT MADE ALIVE IN SPIRIT, IN WHICH ALSO HE WENT AND MADE PROCLAMATION TO THE SPIRITS IN PRISON, who once were disobedient, when the patience of God kept waiting in the days of Noah during the construction of the ark, in which few, that is eight persons, were brought safely through the water."
(I Peter 3:18-20)
It should be explained that the word Hell is rendered from the Hebrew word "Sheol", which corresponds to the Greek word "Hades", and refers to the realm of the dead. A realm shared by both righteous and unrighteous, though separated by a great gulf; the first group being in a place of comfort, the second being in a place of torment, until Christ descended and took the righteous with Him when He ascended into heaven. This scenario of Sheol or Hades before Christ's death and resurrection are clearly depicted in Luke 16:19-31.
It is to be distinguished from the final place of torment called the Lake of Fire and Brimstone, also called the Second Death, which is described in Revelation 19:20; 20:10,14 and 21:8.
There is another word which is translated Hell in the New Testament which is gehenna (Matthew 5:22,29,30; 10:28; 18:9; 23:15,33; Mark 9:43,45,47; Luke 12:5 and James 3:6), and in each case probably should be identified with the lake of Fire.
Its location is unclear, but it is not in the lower parts of the earth.

Answer 3

It doesn't give an actual location but it would seem to say that it is under the earth.

Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! 13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. 16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; 17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? 18 All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. 19 But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.

Revelation 5:3 And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it,

Answer 4

No it doesnt. Just like it doesnt explain where heaven is. But it gives details of both. Think of the rich man and poor Lazarus. In this parable the rich man could see into heaven and he just wanted just a drop of water. Hell is complete and utter discomfort and suffering.

Answer 5

I just want to tell you I'm still mad at you for that hitler cr#p you asked three or four days ago,

and say if your Bible does tell you where Hell is, that I'd like to invite you to verify its location.

Answer 7

Many people have speculated about where Hell is. The answer is surprisingly simple. Throughout the Bible, Scripture clearly teaches that Hell is in the belly of the earth. Science has even proven that below the earth's crust lie vast chasms and hollows (created by plate movement and underground volcanic action) in which gases, extreme heat, and fire exist. This fits the exact description of Hell as given in the Bible:
Matthew 11:23 - "Hades" -
(NIV) - "you will go down to [the depths]"
(KJV) - "shalt be brought down to [Hell]"
(NLT) - "you will be brought down to [the place of the dead]"
Luke 16:23 - "Hades" -
(NIV) - "In [Hell], where he was in torment, he looked up..."
(KJV) - "And in [Hell] he lift up his eyes, being in torments,"
(NLT) - "And his soul went to [the place of the dead],"
II Peter 2:4 - "Tartaros" -
(NIV) - "but sent them to [Hell], putting them in gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;"
(KJV) - "but cast them down into [Hell],"
(NLT) - "He threw them into [Hell], in gloomy caves and darkness until judgment day"
Amos 9:2 - "Sheol"
(NIV) - "Though they dig down to the depths of [the grave],"
(KJV) - "Though they dig into [Hell],"
(NLT) - "Even if they dig down to [the place of the dead], I will reach down and pull them up."
Numbers 16:31-33 - "Sheol"
(NIV) - "the ground under them split apart and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, ...They went down alive into [the grave],"
(KJV) - "the ground clave asunder that was under them. And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, ...They, ...went down alive into the [pit],"
(NLT) - "the ground suddenly split open beneath them. The earth opened up and swallowed the men, ...So they went down alive into [the grave],"

Answer 8

Its in the hottest part of the Earth: the center.

Answer 9

no, well, not exactly.
It states that it is down and that heaven is up but that's just an analogy.
glad I could help.
or sorry if I couldn't.

Answer 10

ACTUALLY THE BIBLE SPEAKS OF THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF HELL AND NONE OF THEM ARE A BURNING TORTURE FOR ETERNITY
