'''Gehenna''' is the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew '''''ge-hinnom''''', meaning “Valley of [the sons of] Hinnom”, south of Jerusalem, where some of the ancient Israelites “passed children through the fire”, sacrificing them to the Canaanite god Molech <ref>2 Chronicles 28:3; 33:6; Jeremiah 7:31; 19:2–6.</ref>. The place is called “Tophet” in Isaiah 30:33. In later years, Gehenna continued to be an unclean place used for burning trash from the city of Jerusalem, notorious for the fact that it continuously smoldered, with smoke and decayed animal remains covered with maggots and worms, and occasional outbursts of flame. Jesus used Gehenna as an illustration of hell.<ref> Matthew 5:22, 29-30; 18:9; 23:15, 33; Mark 9:43-47; Luke 12:5; see James 3:6.</ref>
