It's not assertion rather it's what you yourself brought but you can repost it again perhaps it's not clear to you! smiley
Then paste and underline. Is that hard to do?

Does not your own research tells you that Grave lacks the connotation of the original terms of sheol and Hades? Don't you see why others use Hades or sheol instead of grave? Are you an illiterate?
Illiterate.

Ecclesiastes was talking about the grave!

Peter was talking about a prison of spirits.

Jesus got the keys of Hades. Not the grave.

Souls of martyrs cried from under the altar!

You brought a reference which stated clearly that Hades, Sheol and Grave are used as the same thing yet you want to start arguing blindly again.

Na wah for you o! cheesy
I said you should post the reference and underline where it says so! I reject your assertion, so prove Mr wrong!

He clearly said 'spirits' find me where he said 'souls'
Oh oh, so now you want to be going roundabout.

So, he clearly said spirits and also mentioned only 8 souls saved?

LIE!

DEAD people are in their graves awaiting resurrection {John 5:28-29} it's fallen angels that are imprisoned according to God's word! wink
So it's fallen angels that Noah preached to who disobeyed him and were flooded by water?

Lol....baba I am with you na......show me where Peter said 'souls' were in prison......don't run away oo.....what entity does soul and spirit dwell?
Quote and show me where Peter didn't say souls!

So can't you see that sheol and Hades can be used for grave?

What is the Hebrew word used in Ecclesiastics 9:10? That is the question that I am asking you. Don't you agree that hades is hell again?
Even AI said they're often used interchangeably but they're not the same. It went ahead to state the differences. Are you an illiterate?
Christianity EtcRe: Souls That Died Before Jesus Christ Came - Where Are They Now?6 by GothamCities: 11:31am On Dec 04, 2024

But the reference says Shoel, Hades and Grave means the same thing nah! cheesy
I know you're not sincere. Now, underline the parts that say so!

🤣🤣🤣false teacher cannot prove what entity the soul and spirit dwell.
Can you kindly show me where Peter mentioned 'souls' as those who were in prisons?
False teacher fraudulently disregard the Bible to show forth his demonic doctrines on this thread.

How many things should I teach you. I've expose your falsehoods long enough!

I should start teaching you again about Spirits, souls and bodies? Create a thread for that and get teachers!

What is the Hebrew word for grave according to the Hebrews interlinear?
Perhaps you don't have hands to search for it yourself.

This is meta AI!

Check the Hebrews interlinear if you want to learn. It's grave. Not hell.

I'm not here to teach you that!

I'm here to show you that spirits in prison were the souls of those who disobeyed the preaching of Noah according to Peter!

Grave means the realm of the dead that's why Jonah referred to the belle of whale as his own grave or hell:

Out of my distress I called out to Jehovah, and he answered me. Out of the depths of the Grave I cried for help. You heard my voice. Jonah 2:2 NWT

And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice. KJV


He said: “In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered me. From deep in the realm of the dead I called for help, and you listened to my cry. NIV‬


Humble yourself and learn!
Grave is the pit. Everyone knows that .

They dwell in the same entity.

The blood of Abel also cried. So where does the Bible teach in Revelation and Genesis that it was a 'spirit' that was crying?
Genesis says blood cried.

Revelation said Souls cried.

So, what are you saying?

In both scenarios, dead people are active!

Are you deliberately trying to discredit the scriptures?

The Bible says that souls were crying under the altar! Souls of martyrs.

When talking about Hell/Grave in illustration it means a condition where such ones are rendered inactive before God so Jesus is talking about the condition Pharisees found themselves when the Christ is around, humble Jews who always beg for spiritual food now have it in abundance from Jesus while the Pharisees to whom common Jews do go now found themselves in a condition where they become inactive as John the baptist and Jesus of Nazareth kept telling them that they need to drop their positions if they want to be saved that's the meaning of the illustration!
My friend, dead martyrs complained to God in the book of Revelation!

So are you saying that the apostle Peter disagree with Solomon that there is no consciousness in hell?
If you are a Bible student, you would know that the Greek word in 2 Peter 2:4 is not hades which is also known as hell....but Tartarus. Is Tartarus and Hades the same?
Solomon didn't say there's no consciousness in hell, neither did Peter!

Michael547:
So the context in Ecclesiastics does not allow for grave to be translated as hell and Hades? Or what are you talking about? Can't you see that your so-called hell and Hades is also grave?
Abd I've asked you if hell is grave. Peter said that Jesus preached to spirits in hell. Do spirits dwell in the grave?

Jesus said in Revelation 1:18 that He has the keys of death and hell, does grave have keys?

Jesus used an ILLUSTRATION it's not real event that's why he never mentioned any good done by the Lazarus not evil deeds of the rich man.

Death: Dead ones not burial.
Hades: Dead ones buried. smiley
If it doesn't happen in reality, that illustration has k leg. Don't you think so? How can Jesus be saying dead people are speaking from hell when they do not do so?

Don't ask me stupid questions please.

Peter said Jesus preached to spirits in hell. If hell is same as grave, do spirits reside in the grave?

It's does not matter the translation. In all cases you look at context. Without that one is just being foolish as a Bible reader.

Peter pressed to spirits in hell. Do spirits reside in the grave?

Is the grave in the spirit realm?
Why was Jesus preaching to spirits in the hell if hell is the literal physical pit? Do spirits reside in the pit?
