Gehenna. A valley outside
Jerusalem. From early times it was a place of human sacrifice and in later Jewish thought it was regarded as a Divinely appointed place of punishment for apostates and other great sinners. Hence in NT times the word is used for the final place of torment for the wicked after the Last Judgement.
