Great article. I have stared in the Gates of Hell, which turns our to be Caesarea Phillipi, whic is a Temple built to the God Pan. This is located at the flood Waters at Panias, which is where the snowmelt creates a mighty river. The Temple has been excavated, but when the NT quotes the “Gates of Hell”, this is where they were standing. This site is about 50 miles north of Caperneum, whis is from the Hebrew e Kefar Nahum, or City of Nahum. he Hinom Valley wraps around the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, all the way to the west of the Old City, and is where a millenia of trash was thrown over the edge into. So the trash was constantly burning, so this is the Fires of Hell people were thrown into that Fante referred to. In essence, I have stood on the edge of the burning pit, and stared into the gates of hell.
