γέεννα

Strong’s: G1067

Associated OET lemmas: Γέεννα

Form 1

Part of speech: noun, f.

Inflections: γέεννα; -ης

Sense 1: Gehenna, hell

Semantic entry: 1.21

Semantic domains: Geographical Objects and Features

Subdomains: Regions Below the Surface of the Earth

Definition: a place of punishment for the dead

Notes: The Greek term γέεννα is derived from a Hebrew phrase meaning ‘Valley of Hinnom,’ a ravine running along the south side of Jerusalem and a place where the rubbish from the city was constantly being burned. According to late Jewish popular belief, the last judgment was to take place in this valley, and hence the figurative extension of meaning from ‘Valley of Hinnom’ to ‘hell.’ In most languages γέεννα is rendered as ‘place of punishment’ or ‘place where the dead suffer’ or ‘place where the dead suffer because of their sins.’
