And it's a blessing working on commentary or in class. Sometimes you have to talk about a serious, very somber doctrine like hell. And it's in the Scriptures and it's even lexically there, by the Word. And a good example of that is in Isaiah 66, it talks about the worm will never be, fire will never be questioned, worm will never be satisfied, and they will endure everlasting reproach, well that word often translated reproach or derision or however you'd like to translate it is a very unique Hebrew word and it's only found elsewhere in Daniel 12:2 which also talks about there will be a resurrection for those unto eternal life and another resurrection for those under everlasting reproach, same word.
And we wanted to make sure that those were translated the same way and the students seeing, "Oh, it's consistently translated, oh, it's the same word." They start to realize as weighty as this doctrine is and as real as it is, it's not just something made up by scholars later or people who want to guilt people into salvation.
This was consciously developed and expounded upon by the writers of Scripture from Old Testament to New Testament. And just consistency like that, that's very, very helpful. Thank you.
