Got a major falsehood being pushed here on the Forum brethren. That falsehood is how some are purposefully trying to confuse the abode of the wicked called "hell" in many Scriptures, with the one-time destruction event called the "lake of fire" (Rev.20:14-15). They are two separate and distinct things per Scripture.
The KJV translators used the word "hell" for several different words in their translation. One must use a Greek Lexicon to know what each example is talking about.
'geena' - Here are the KJV NT Scriptures where 'geena' was rendered as "hell":
Matt.5:22; Matt.5:29; Matt.5:30; Matt.10:28; Matt.18:9; Matt.23:15; Matt.23:33; Mark 9:43; Mark 9:45; Mark 9:47; Luke 12:5; James 3:6.
Everyone of those examples using 'geena' is about the future one-time "lake of fire" event. They are not about the heavenly abode of the wicked also called "hell" in several NT Scriptures.
The word 'geena' comes from the Hebrew for the 'valley of Hinnom' per OT history. What was that valley about? The valley of Hinnon was located outside Jerusalem's south wall. It was a place of ancient Molech worship, with children sacrificed in the fire (2 Kings 23:10; 2 Chron.28:3). Judah at Jerusalem once fell into that falseness (Jeremiah 7:30-31). God said He never commanded them to do such a thing, nor did such a thing as burning the children in fire come into His heart.
That valley of Hinnom was also called Tophet. In Jer.7:32, God said one day that place will no longer be called Tophet, nor the valley of Hinnom, but instead "the valley of slaughter", the carcases shall be for meat for the fowls, that put for a final destruction of the wicked, I.E., the "lake of fire" event!
In Isaiah 30:33, God says that area of Tophet is ordained of old, for the king it is prepared (Satan), and He has made it deep and large, the pile thereof is fire and much wood, and the breath of The LORD kindles it. That's about the final destruction of Satan and the wicked, the "lake of fire" of Revelation. It represents a one-time utter destruction of whoever goes into it.
Thus 'geena' is NOT... the heavenly abode of the wicked that exists right now, where the angels that sinned are held in chains of darkness until that day of 'geena' (lake of fire, Tophet, Hinnom).
'haides' - Here's the NT Scripture where that Greek word 'haides' was also rendered as "hell" by the KJV translators: Matt.11:23; Matt.16:18; Luke 10:15; Luke 16:23; Acts 2:27; Acts 2:31; Rev.1:18; Rev.6:8; Rev.20:13; Rev.20:14.
I call your attention especially to the Rev.6:8, Rev.20:13 and 14 verses about the word "hell" as the Greek word haides. That's also where the 'rich man' of Luke 16 found himself after he had died, our Lord Jesus speaking that.
The ancient Greek mythology had a god of the underworld they called 'Hades'. His dominion was also derived from that name (haidou and thus haides). His dominion per that mythology included the underworld, the air, sea, and the earth. Tartarus was a specific place in Hades of a dark dungeon located in the underworld. That's the original pagan Greek concept of Hades. It is not exactly the same Bible concept of the heavenly prison for the wicked, but it is similar.
In the Acts 2:25-27 quotes from the Old Testament Psalms, the Greek 'haides' ("hell" there) is put for the same thing as Hebrew 'sheol', the place of the dead. Psalms 86:13 is using that same concept of 'haides' of a lower dark abode like Greek Tartarus, a dungeon prison abode for the wicked after death. Even though Ps.86 is using the Hebrew word 'sheol' for that place, we can be certain it means more than just a literal grave out in a cemetary somewhere. Much of Jewish tradition does not believe an actual place in the heavenly for the wicked dead really exists. They believe mostly there's only a literal grave where the dead go, like in a cemetary. In other words per their view, all your loved ones that have died in Christ are still out in the local backyard cemetary, literally.
The fact that our Lord Jesus and Apostles per the New Testament would include a concept from Greek 'haides' means there is... some of it being true, and people when they die do not just literally wait it out in a literal earthen grave. Christ showed Lazarus and the rich man having continued life after their flesh bodies had died and were buried, as He did also in the Matt.10:28 verse, showing us that our 'soul' does continue after flesh death, and that the soul's existence is not dependent upon one's flesh body. Paul revealed this concept also in 2 Corinthains 5.
With Christ going to preach to the "spirits in prison" after His resurrection (1 Pet.3), this concept of an abode of the wicked in the heavenly dimension is further shown. Isaiah 14 about Lucifer being cast down to the sides of the pit, and then... others looking upon him is further proof that even the Old Testament Scriptures had covered this concept of 'haides' also as a real holding place for the wicked in the heavenly dimension.
'tartaroo' - 2 Peter 2:4.
Peter only used the Greek term 'tartaroo' for the abode of the wicked, which the KJV translators also translated as "hell".
Apostle Peter used this 'tartaroo' like the Greek idea of Tartarus, a deep dark dungeon in the underworld for the dead. Peter used that for the angels that sinned, held in chains of darkness until the Judgment. That's a huge clue that an abode in the heavenly dimension for the wicked really exists. No one can simply claim that place is some literal grave out in the backyard, because those angels were not born flesh and never died in the flesh. They are held in chains of darkness in the deepest depths of haides, being reserved for the future "second death", the death of one's spirit and soul.
Per all that, we need to be careful how we read the KJV word "hell", because the KJV translators did not give the full meaning of those different words in the Greek NT manuscripts. The traditions of the Jews pushed on this Forum are here to try and get us Christians away from understanding those differences.
