The first occurrence
of this word is in
Genesis
37:35,
where it is rendered
"grave".
It occurs sixty-five times in
the Hebrew of the Old Testament;
and only by studying each passage
by itself can the student hope to
gather the
Biblical usage
of the word.
All heathen or traditional
usages are not only worthless,
but mischievous.
The following are all the
passages where the word
"Sheol" occurs,
with the rendering in each
passage indicated thus:
1 = grave, 2 = pit, 3 = hell.
