This is a time when an ancient, forgotten Valley reveals itself; and it is an ancient and forgotten land; and the Valley is rendered in English as hell (from Gehenna, one of many Greek words rendered as hell in English; but all different meanings, in Greek; but all rendered to hell in English; I dont know why); and the forgotten land is Topeth; Ben Hinnom was probably a man, who owned the valley; but it is renamed Valley of Slaughter; by the Lord in that day; by virtue of the bodies cast askewn and uncovered, in it; and both bird and beast feast on the bodies of them; and the worm never dies there, speaking of the maggots; and the fires are lit to burn them and they burn both day and night; because there is no more room in Topeth; to bury a single body more; and no more dirt to cover with; because the buried are covered with the dirt from their own holes; but there is no more dirt, with which to cover; because there is no more room, to dig the hole; and so they lie uncovered; Christ uses this valley as a metaphor for destruction, utter destruction; because to the Jew, contact with a cemetery or a dead body renders him ceremonially unclean; and to him, the idea of bodies lying uncovered, and burning in this way; is about the worst thing he can imagine; it is of unimaginable horror, to him; the Jew. But the word Hinnom; or Gehenna; is just a mans last name, long ago, rendered as the word hell in English; and used as a metaphor for destruction, utter destruction on a very large scale; which hasnt happened yet from my point of view of time; but the valley is chosen because sons of Judah sacrificed children there, making them to walk through the fire; to Baal; and Moloch; but this was abomination; and this is the punishment, for the abomination; which happened in that place; this is one of the meanings of the English word hell; one of many; I dont know why so many things are rendered as hell; its confusing, to me; I dont understand why anyone would do that, render so many Greek words, altogether different; but all rendered as hell. Ive never understood this. Its very confusing; to me.
