Talk:Christian views on Hades

message: The word has two syllables. What is the etymology? If it was Hebrew, Greek, whatever known language, the origin would be clear. But it's not. What's the origin of the word?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.70.29.185 (talk) 23:19, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Etymology

message: I have inserted without changing it this text from the relevant section of the mature article Hades here, in hopes that a knowledgable and responsible adult will edit it into the text. In this\of the part "Hades in Christianity" into Hades in Christianity, which had almost the same size, but slightly different content". The summary was misleading, as comparison of the present opening text with the "slightly different" main body shows. We don't cannibalize Wikipedia articles. I shall come back in a week's time and see how this is progressing.--Wetman (talk) 21:56, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I suppose there is a misunderstanding. I did not only copy and paste the text but integrated it in parts in the existing text here. You will see this if you really read the text. So there is no need of the part "Hades in Christianity" in the article "Hades" any more. The problem was, that the some topic existed in two variations at two places. So it was not an act of cannibilization but of necessary consolidation. But please feel free to improve the text! --Alambra (talk) 10:39, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps not quite true. The interested reader may judge for oneself whether or not this dekleted text is actually "integrated" in any meaningful part into the article as it currently stands. This Alambra is repeatedly deleting this comprehensive, sourced and neautral text at Hades as well. It may be time to report Alambra. What do others think? I'd rather not get further involved with this monkeybusiness, if I can help it. --Wetman (talk) 06:45, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Material from [[Hades]]

message: This article only appears to make mention of Hades as a place, whereas Revelation 6:8 states that Hades "followed behind" Death. What does that mean? --Sk8a H8a (talk) 20:52, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Figurative language, I would say, as in Rev 20:14, where Death too is spoken of as thrown into the lake of fire.  Lima (talk) 04:13, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Are you saying that this bit of the Bible is not literally true?? --Sk8a H8a (talk) 16:46, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: In the second paragraph of the section headed, "New Testament" is the sentence,
: "Modern translations, for which there are only 10 instances of the word "ᾅδης" in the New Testament, generally transliterate it as "Hades"."
Can I ask for the editor who composed this or another who understands it to rephrase it, please?  The meaning to me is unclear because it seems inaccurately expressed.  "Modern translations" clearly don't contain any instances of the word "ᾅδης", precisely because they are translations!  Perhaps that is the reason for the use of the word "for" rather then "in".   
It could (and I suspect is intended to) mean,  
: "In the Greek source text for Modern translations there are only 10 instances of the word "ᾅδης" in the New Testament, and generally they transliterate it as "Hades"."
If this is what is meant, please feel free to make the substitution.  In my view it would be better to express this clearly even if it takes a few more words.  Hedles (talk) 12:22, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

message: Shouldn’t this page be moved to "Hades in Christianity", just like "Christian views on Hell" was moved to "Hell in Christianity"? I know there are several articles with names such as "[ADJECTIVE] views on [SUBJECT]", but they're very unatural and hard to search. —CamiloCBranco (talk) 10:29, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
