Jeremiah 7:30-34 Message Translation

[shawn]

My aha moment with UR came when I understood this passage.  I re-read it today in the Message translation and it overwhelmed me.  Thought I would share.


This is reference to the Hinnom Valley, Gehenna


The people of Judah have lived evil lives while I've stood by and watched." God's Decree. "In deliberate insult to me, they've set up their obscene god-images in the very Temple that was built to honor me. They've constructed Topheth altars for burning babies in prominent places all through the valley of Ben-hinnom, altars for burning their sons and daughters alive in the fire—a shocking perversion of all that I am and all I command.

[Tom]

That is the actual place called Gehenna that still exists today where that took place which was later used as the city dump of Jerusalem where the corpses of condemned criminals were burned as will happen again in the coming eon.

"And it will come to be, as often as the new moon comes in its monthly time, And as often as the sabbath comes in its sabbath cycle, All flesh shall come to worship before Me, says Yahweh. And they will go forth and see the corpses of the mortals who transgressed against Me, For their worm shall not die, And their fire shall not be quenched, And they will become a repulsion to all flesh." (Isaiah 66:23,24)

The intentional mistranslation of "Gehenna" as "hell" is used to support the myth of "hell fire." The church failed to suppress scripture by killing people with fire, but the church changed scripture to terrorize people with torture in fire forever after they die. It is a lie!
