To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Those who save the Hfe of any one are said to deHver him from Sheol. Else- where Sheol is said to devour all ; to be insatiable ; to be stern and cruel. To it, by prosopopoeia, are ascribed snares, with which it lies in wait for men : and those who escape death are said to make a covenant with Sheol. By metonymy, Sheol is put for its inhabitants. As to the etymology, it is a cavity, a hollozv, subterranean place ; just as the German, hollen, hell, is originally the same with hohle, a hollow cav...ern, and as the Latin ccclum is from the Greek 7r:ozAo?, hollow. The usual deriva- tion has been from the notion of asking, demand- ing, since Orcus lays claim unsparingly to all alike, whence the epithet '' Or ens rapax'' Thus far the lexicon. It is the classic decision of the point, and, I think, is generally unquestioned by the best scholars. It is not the sect-notion of any preacher. It is the judicial decision of the linguist. You will notice that there is nothing of punishment in the word.
