Sheol was thought of as a place situated below the ground (cf. Ezek. 31:15), a place of darkness, silence and forgetfulness (cf. Job 10:21).Jesus spoke of hell as “eternal fire” (Matt. 25:41) and “eternal punishment” (Matt. 25:46). In Matthew 25:46, the same word—eternal—is used to describe eternal life for the righteous and the eternal punishment of hell for the unrighteous.Traditionally, Christians believed that Heaven and Hell are physical places. Nowadays, some Christians believe that Heaven and Hell could be states of mind – for example, Heaven might be a place of unending happiness. Additionally, Roman Catholics.
Where did the concept of hell come from : Hell has its origins in many pre-Christian beliefs.

Where did Jesus say hell was
But these passages are not actually referring to “hell.” The word Jesus uses is “Gehenna.” The term does not refer to a place of eternal torment but to a notorious valley just outside the walls of Jerusalem, believed by many Jews at the time to be the most unholy, god-forsaken place on earth.
Who is the king of hell : While other demons have ruled Hell previous to them, only Satan, Lucifer, Mundus, Dis, Mephistopheles, and Lilith have used this title to describe themselves with Satan being the first and true king of Hell. It is unknown how the King or Queen of Hell is elected.
Jesus did not think a person's soul would live on after death, either to experience bliss in the presence of God above or to be tormented in the fires of hell below. As a Jew of the 1st century, Jesus did not think the soul went anywhere after death. It simply ceased to exist with the body. Early Christian teaching
The 6th-century sect called the Christolytes, as recorded by John of Damascus, believed that Jesus left his soul and body in Hell, and only rose with his divinity to Heaven.

Iblis, the temporary ruler of hell, is thought of residing in the bottom of hell, from where he commands his hosts of infernal demons.In traditional English versions, he does occasionally seem to speak of “Hell” – for example, in his warnings in the Sermon on the Mount: anyone who calls another a fool, or who allows their right eye or hand to sin, will be cast into “hell” (Matthew 5:22, 29-30). Lucifer
Satan, also known as the Devil, and sometimes also called Lucifer in Christianity, is an entity in Abrahamic religions that seduces humans into sin or falsehood. In Judaism, Satan is seen as an agent subservient to God, typically regarded as a metaphor for the yetzer hara, or "evil inclination".
Who runs hell : Iblis, the temporary ruler of hell, is thought of residing in the bottom of hell, from where he commands his hosts of infernal demons. But contrary to Christian traditions, Iblis and his infernal hosts do not wage war against God, his enmity applies against humanity only.
What religions don’t believe in hell : With the exception of the Orthodox branch, Judaism has abandoned the concept altogether, believing that the idea of eternal punishment is inconsistent with God's mercy. Christians tamed the horrors of hell by saying the flames of the Bible are allegorical and that the true punishment is the soul's separation from God.
Who goes to hell according to God
Those who commit atrocities, intentionally inflict harm on others, and spread corruption on earth will dwell in hell (13:25). The sinners, who did not repent from their sins before death, or their bad deeds outweigh their good deeds on the day of judgement, will also taste hell (20:47). The early church believed that after his death Christ descended into hell in order to rescue the souls of the righteous, such as Adam and Eve. Jesus descends and breaks down the doors of hell, unbinds the prisoners and leads the just to heaven.An early view of Jesus' descent into this 'underworld' location in one interpretive camp was that he liberated the faithful that had previously experienced death. A later view shares that this place of descent portrays Christ's victory over the Kingdom of Satan, completed in death.
Is the word hell a bad word : Unless you're talking about hell in a religious context, it's considered a curse word in the English language. Examples of cursing include, "Go to hell!" and "For hell's sake!" Hell can also be used in a casual, conversational way, but it's still considered a swear word in those instances.
