Yes, and why didn't he say at the flood, Noah these people are going to hell.

It was said about the city dump, the would be better off to be cast in the sea Mark 9:42-48; Death and burial by fire or burial by fire as a sacrifice to a god,
2Chr.28:1-4; Jer.7:30,31; 19:2-5; This was Tophet, Gehenna and valley of the
son of Hinnom.
Acts 2:27-35; Sepulchre hell, cave pit, tomb grave, burial place cemeteries iswhere Jesus and all are resurrected from.
Tartarus prison hell is for the angels that sinned before the flood. Jude 6;
1Pet.3:18-20; 2Pet.2:4; Judges 1Cor.6:2,3;

Answer 2

Because you're talking about something that is in a JEWISH book, and Judaism doesn't have the concept of burning in an eternal hell for the pleasure of some sadistic god. We have reincarnation. always have.

The christians got rid of that for themselves, they prefer scaring people into compliance with the concept of hell, apparently. The concept originally comes from Zoroastrianism, which is probably where the Christians picked it up. We Jews never adopted that.

Everywhere in the so-called "Old testament" where you see the word "hell" in English, is NOT that in Hebrew. Nor does it mean that.

P.S. Oh, and by the way, Judaism doesn't have the concept of Original Sin either. This is an extreme misinterpretation by the Church concerning the adam and eve story. Judaism believes people are born clean and pure. Unlike Christianity which teaches that because of Adam and Eve, people are born filthy as rags and worthless. We think this is a disgusting concept.

P.S.S. And for those who believe the JEWISH God doesn't want people to have knowledge, you should know that Adam and Eve were SUPPOSED to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. They were just not supposed to do it until AFTER they had eaten from the Tree of Eternal Life, first. See how much you don't know about the JEWISH story of it? If they had waited about an hour later (after Shabbat came), they would have been fine eating from the Tree.

Answer 3

Because the story is an allegory for the phenomenon by which Souls, which are Perfect in an Absolute sense, must take a MIND in order to explore and experience the Whole of Creation. The MIND is used by the Soul although the MIND itself will never perceive the Soul it serves.

The nature of the MIND is duality, or Yin - Yang. The nature of the Soul is NSgy, or Neutral Spiritual Energy, which is an Energy that is Absolute in its permanence, and in its inability to ever be other than it is. The Soul was required to take on a MIND so that it could fulfill the purpose of "life". Tasting the apple is an allegory of the Soul engaging its new MIND to project itself into the whole Creation. This using its newly acquired MIND to exercise Will, separate from God, was the "fall" of the Soul. For every use of its MIND created a new Karmic obligation for the Soul... and this means that a bit of its Spirituality assumes the role of a Karmic debt that must eventually be repaid by that Soul.

This was the "trap" of the Soul within the law of Karma, and the separation of the Soul from its awareness of God. Each Soul will eventually return to God, fully experienced in God's Lela, but the time for that return may be eons away. Each Soul having its own unique Karmic relationship with Creation.

Not something against God, or alien to God, but simply the Soul freely participating in what is called in Eastern mysticism as the Lord's Lela [translated as meaning "Play"]. Ego, or exercising a Will separate from that of God. Once the Soul tastes of exercising its MIND, it is caught in the trap of the purpose of life... which is for the Soul to fully and completely explore and experience the entire Creation.... and not to return Home until there remains naught to Know.

Answer 4

Who said Adam and Eve went to hell? God's punishment to them was to cast them out of the Garden. Even in His punishment, He showed His Grace. He told Adam that he would have to work for what he needed, but he still provided for his family. He told Eve that she would go through pain in child birth, guaranteeing she would produce offspring. Not to mention that He performed the first blood sacrifice when He provided them with clothes made of hides. They knew how to perform a blood sacrifice for forgiveness, who do you think taught Cain and Able?

Answer 5

He did. God said they would die. Death wasn't in the world until Adam and Eve sinned. After death is eternal hell or eternal heaven. To a Christian death has no sting or purpose. To a Christian it is absent from the body, present with the Lord. To the unbeliever it is the grave until Christ sits in Judgment and casts into the Lake of Fire. There is no purgatory and Abraham's Bosom went to heaven when Jesus went into Hades and took captivity captive. Jesus took the keys of death and Hades from the devil. Jesus defeated Satan on the Cross of Calvary. Satan is a defeated foe.

Answer 6

Adam and Eve had no concept of hell. No more than telling a two year old "if you get on this plane you will go to Rome" There was no point of referance..

Answer 7

Nope.

Gen 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
Gen 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

Answer 8

Because eating the fruit did not condemn them to Hell it made them so they were no longer immortal and they now had to die

Answer 9

Who knows? Hell may not have even been created at that time. Actually, one word used for hell IS the grave.

Answer 10

I know. Christians use that line on the rest of us enough, why shouldn't God have used it on his first two "created" human beings?
