Synopsis
Excerpt from A Letter to the Rev. Bernard Whitman, on the Term Gehenna, Rendered Hell in the Common Version
You say Now the learned commentators of all de nominations contend,'that the name of this loathsome, and fiery, and wormy valley, was afterwards used as an emblem of the future punishment of the wicked. They contend that our Saviour used gehenna to signify the tor ment which awaited the sinful in another existence.' To this, sir, I answer. 1. The commentators contend, that Jesus Christ is the Supreme God. But you deny this. And if their contending for a doctrine is good evi dence of its truth, Unitarianism is a mass of falsehood. Why then use an argument, which destroys your own system It is what commentators prove, not what they contend for, any of us ought to care about.

A Letter to the Rev. Bernard Whitman, on the Term Gehenna (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the historical and theological debate surrounding the word gehenna, often translated as hell, as it appears in the New Testament. The author argues that the traditional understanding of gehenna as a place of eternal punishment is inaccurate, and that a closer examination of Jewish writings from the time of Jesus reveals a more nuanced interpretation. The book delves into the etymological origins of gehenna and traces its evolution in meaning throughout the Old and New Testaments. Through a meticulous analysis of relevant texts, the author challenges established beliefs about the nature of punishment in the afterlife and offers a fresh perspective on the concept of divine justice. By shedding light on the historical and cultural context surrounding gehenna, this book contributes to a deeper understanding of the Christian scriptures and the theological debates that have shaped their interpretation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330230879_0
