“Nor can hell mean only a limited time of very long duration, Edwards argues. Sometimes the word ‘forever’ in the Bible does not denote a proper eternity but only a very long period of time. On this thin sliver of Biblical truth the ‘hell-as-long-imprisonment’ interpreters based their understanding of hell. Edwards, however, points out that some texts referring to hell use not just the word ‘forever’ but the emphatic expression ‘for ever and ever,’ the same expression used to describe heaven and the eternity of God himself (Rev 14:11; 20:10).31 If this expression does not mean a proper eternity, he remarks, ‘there is none that does.’ He leaves his opponents little ground to stand on and still claim the Bible as their guide.” (Volume 38, Number 1, Page 54)

“Finally Edwards points out that the idea of mercy presupposes the prerogative to display it or not to display it.” (Volume 38, Number 1, Page 49)

“Hirsch states later that ‘when older texts have broad meanings, we can easily produce modern exemplifications so long as the original meaning is understood as being itself an exemplification of a broad and still valid con-cept.’” (Volume 38, Number 4, Page 488)

“The unimaginable awesomeness of the punishment suits the awesome majesty of an offended king as great as God.” (Volume 38, Number 1, Page 52)

“to be considered a figure of speech for death, which cannot keep the Christ imprisoned” (Volume 38, Number 3, Page 367)
