To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is very evident that Dr. Campbell, Parkhurst and Whitby take it for granted that our Lord did use the term Gehenna as it is used by the writers of the Targums and Apocrypha, to signify a place of eternal punishment for the wicked. They seem to speak about this, as if it could not, and ought not to be questioned ; yet all they advance in proof, is bare assertion. They proceed upon the presumption, that this is indisputable, and cntire'y overlook, what we have proved to be a fact, thatihe term... Gehenna is used in the Old Testament as an emblem of the temporal punishment which God was to bring on the Jewish nation. Had those men turned their attention to this, they would have given us a very different account of Gehenna, and not referred us to the Targums and the Apocrypha. Considerable evidence has already been produced, showing, that our Lord used the term Gehenna in the sense Jeremiah did when he predicted the temporal punishment of the Jews. All the passages where Gehenna occurs agree with this view.
