Hell
- Anarchy in heaven, especially in hada, the lowest
heaven, where angels torment one another. When an
earthly tyrant dies, evil spirits seize his newborn
spirit for vengeance's sake, and cast him into hell.
The
word used in English translations of the Bible for
both the Hebrew Sheol (the place of the departed)
and the Greek Gehenna (the place of punishment for
the wicked after death). In Christian theology, hell
is generally believed to be the place or state into
which unrepentant sinners pass after this life.
