Serious Bible students ... What is Hell, according the Word?

Question

Lately, I see folks here toss that word around like they actually know what it means.

The wrong side of paradise is not hell. It a holding place for those awaiting final judgement. The poor souls there still have a shot at salvation during the millennium.

Satan is the only one By Name, in the Bible, that God has sentenced to suffer the second death, the death of the soul.. The fallen angles will also suffer the second death.

Here's God's description of hell:

Ezekiel 28:18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

The above verse is what God will do to satan, the prince of Tyrus, which is one of satan’s titles.

Here’s why God sentenced satan to hell:

Ezekiel Chapter 28:14-15

14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.

Answer 1

Hell is the lake of fire. It is eternal.

The only way to not go there is to believe in this life that Jesus, who is God, died for our sins on the cross and rose again. If any person refuses to their dying breath to believe that, they will go to the lake of fire for eternity, and there is no way out.

Answer 2

A word used in the King James Version (as well as in the Catholic Douay Version and most older translations) to translate the Hebrew she’ohl′ and the Greek hai′des. In the King James Version the word “hell” is rendered from she’ohl′ 31 times and from hai′des 10 times. This version is not consistent, however, since she’ohl′ is also translated 31 times “grave” and 3 times “pit.” In the Douay Version she’ohl′ is rendered “hell” 64 times, “pit” once, and “death” once.
In 1885, with the publication of the complete English Revised Version, the original word she’ohl′ was in many places transliterated into the English text of the Hebrew Scriptures, though, in most occurrences, “grave” and “pit” were used, and “hell” is found some 14 times. This was a point on which the American committee disagreed with the British revisers, and so, when producing the American Standard Version (1901) they transliterated she’ohl′ in all 65 of its appearances. Both versions transliterated hai′des in the Christian Greek Scriptures in all ten of its occurrences, though the Greek word Ge′en·na (English, “Gehenna”) is rendered “hell” throughout, as is true of many other modern translations.

Answer 4

Hell is described as a bottomless pit (Luke 8:31, Revelation 9:1), and a lake of fire, burning with sulfur, where the inhabitants will be tormented day and night forever and ever (Revelation 20:10). In hell, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, indicating intense grief and anger (Matthew 13:42). It is a place “where the worm never dies and the fire never goes out” (Mark 9:48). God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but desires them to turn from their wicked ways so that they can live (Ezekiel 33:11). But He will not force us into submission; if we choose to reject Him, He has little choice but to give us what we want – to live apart from Him.

Hell in biblical terms is the place where those who's names are not found in the book of life go to. In other word if your name is not in the book of life your going to hell.
Hell is a place where unimaginable torture and pain rules along side with hopelessness and despair. Definitely not the place you want to go.

Answer 7

In a nutshell, an eternal prison made for Lucifer and his fellow fallen angels (Now, plenty of people are unfortunately destined for this place). It is an eternal prison, in utter darkness, totally seperated from the presence of God. A place where there will be eternal weeping and gnashing of teeth, by people who would realize what seperation from God's presence really is, regreting the day they refused Him.
