Admin webmdave Posted February 11, 2007 Admin Share Posted February 11, 2007 By John Blatt The word "Hell" is a very popular word in English. Actually it is not an English word, it is a German word. As a matter of fact, about 90 percent of the King James English is actually borrowed from the Anglo-Saxon language, that is, German. The word "Hell" appears in many common phrases. There are even well known funny poems about Hell. A couple of them are in this article. Here are some of the phrases found on the internet with the word Hell being a part if it: go to hell from hell in hell like hell what the hell heaven and hell hell's angels run like hell hell's kitchen gates of hell hell yeah hell song operator from hell bastard operator from hell hell lyrics highway to hell life in hell hell hath no fury hell freezes hell freezes over hell michigan bat out of hell hell fire hell on earth road to hell going to hell hotter than hell marriage of heaven and hell yaoi hell hell hole convent of hell hell song lyrics linotype hell hell's canyon hell yeah lyrics the hell song straight to hell hell's gate hell no circles of hell mad as hell club hell the road to hell hell cat levels of hell the gates of hell hell on heels hell hath no fury like who the hell oh hell to hell and back email hell heaven or hell hell week sounds of hell dll hell hotter n hell hell in a handbasket hell yea cowboys from hell sum 41 hell song the marriage of heaven and hell hell exothermic hell raiser problem from hell eagles hell the road to hell is paved hell hath no fury like a woman sounds from hell hell is other people burn in hell eagles hell freezes hell on wheels motel hell pictures of hell highway to hell lyrics circle of hell hell bound eagles hell freezes over the road to hell is paved with hell test hell creek hell gate long hard road out of hell hell fighters hell hath no fury like a woman scorned road to hell is paved with good intentions hell endothermic hell's belles here today gone to hell etiquette hell roomies from hell meatloaf bat out of hell bored as hell escape from hell funny as hell drumkit from hell season in hell deathscythe hell shut the hell up goto hell hell to pay heaven from hell dante's hell college roomies from hell t shirts from hell hell is for heroes i'm mad as hell jazz from hell raising hell hell mi hell in a hand basket fresh hell life is hell harlem hell fighters mr hell crazy as hell see you in hell is hell exothermic hell is for children damn hell between heaven and hell bakura's hell hell fest run like hell walkthrough dj hell level of hell hell boy felix hell tickle hell what is hell to hell with dying hell hound this is hell hell raisers living hell the hell song lyrics raise hell hell fire club ac dc highway to hell truth about hell hell in the cell the yaoi hell got to hell dante hell hell sing hell fighter hell t shirts what the hell is going on from hell dvd descent into hell hounds of hell hell's angles hell angels hell's angel revelation of hell lyrics hell yeah hell night proverbs of hell hell breath reign in hell so you think you can tell heaven from hell sum 41 the hell song little hell god of hell fire green hell babes from hell hell or high water bat out of hell lyrics when hell freezes over shores of hell neighbours from hell fun from hell mr hats hell hole hell yeah remix cold day in hell hell awaits run like hell xbox heaven & hell raise a little hell gamers hell movie from hell mr hell show hell pics arpeggios from hell all hell breaks loose bloody hell Did you know that the secular meaning behind the word "Hell" simply meant "hidden, out of sight?" Yep, in the ancient German, when two lovers went to a dark place to hide for love making they "went to hel," they hid somewhere. Our English words helmut, hall, hole, heel, hall, all stem from the German word "hele". The religious meaning of the word "Hell" came from Germany too, actually Teutonic mythology. "Hele" was a goddess of the underworld in ancient folklore. Here's some info from the "About" site: "Hel is the name of the Norse underworld, and its ruler. Hel/Hela, in Norse mythology, was the hideous daughter of the Giant Loki, banished to the netherworld, Helheim (literally, 'house of Hel'), world of the dead, by the Chief God, Odin. The distinctive looking Goddess, whose skin is black on one side, rules over the dead until Ragnarök and the coming birth of the new world. "Hel is sister of Fenris, the wolf, and Jormungand, the world-serpent. "The name for the Christian world of torment is derived from Hela's abode. Unlike the Christian version, however, Hel's realm was home to all who did not die in battle - miserable as it was, good behavior wasn't any more likely to get one a reprieve. Helheim's entrance works only in one direction - once one has entered, even a "God", one cannot leave - like the Greek Hades, Helheim is guarded by a monstrous hound, and encircled by the impassable river Styx. According to legend, the dead will remain in Hel's kingdom until the last days of Ragnarök." There is no "hell" to go to as so many "hellfire" Christian preachers or the Islamic clerics teach. I have studied this one little word for over sixteen years now with more interest and fervor than any Christian, ex-Christian, or secular mythologist that I know of. If you have a bible do NOT take it for granted that it is telling you the "truth". The English bible translations in print today (all with the rare exception of a small handful of translations) are riddled with biased, theologically programmed indoctrination. This means that the original languages of the bible are TRANSLATED which requires interpretation. All the English bibles are translated by those who have some religious programming, thus their interpretation of the translation process is preset, even though they may think they are being as impartial as possible. Thus you have a bible that, regardless of intention, is impregnated with presuppositional religious programming by the translators. Translators rely on the works of other translators who have also relied on previous translators. Take the Strong's Concordance as a perfect example. Many Christians go to the Strong's and Thayer's Greek lexicons for a more "thorough" understanding specific Greek words of the New Testament. They come away from these documents with the impression that they know the bible better because of them. But these tools are HEAVILY saturated with theological programming. The christian "layman" knows no better because their leaders (pastors, teachers, scholars, etc.) approve the usage of these "standard works". If anything one generally know LESS about the true translation of the original languages from these works then they did beforehand. All this is to say that the words "hell" and other phrases such as "eternal damnation" or "everlasting torment" that are found in mostly every English translation is NOT what the original languages say. It is propaganda. Programming. It is ironic that those who are supposed to know the most about the bible - Christians - end up knowing less than non-religious researchers because they are dependent upon the Christian system and its tools for their knowledge, which has been controlled from the beginning. I will give you examples in the future of what I am describing here. "Hell" is a control mechanism, created for the generation of fear, which is what oils the Christian machine. http://exchristian.net/exchristian/2007/02...ll-is-hell.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
