they talked about sheol, which could be hell.
You're right. Sheol is hebrew (שאול) and is Hades in Greek. Sheol is the common grave of mankind. Everyone, good and evil, goes to Sheol when they die. Those who can be purified rise from the dead and enter Heaven on judgement day. Those too evil to be purified stay dead.

So when Jesus talked of sheol, he was talking about being dead in a grave and "unrisen"? But no brimstone, fire and demons ripping you apart for the rest of eternity?
