They brought human sacrifices to a statue called Molech, and they took little Jewish babies in Israel, Jews. And they sacrificed them to a statue. And so, that's why they call this place Gehenna. And they said that this this what they're doing over here, burning Jews and so on to statues and so on, is Gehenna. In essence, it's a symbolic of bad. What's the worst thing that we can think of? Gehenna, hell. Gehenna is not the only name. If you look at the Zohar Kadush and the the Reshit Hochma, you'll find out a few interesting things. So, in the Gemara Masechet Shabbat 31 bet, it says that Hashem created the world for the sake of Yirat Shamayim, for the sake of you fearing him. And someone does the opposite, it's better that he wasn't created. Why? Cuz now Hashem has to punish him.
