Jer. 19:6 Gehenna č VALLEY OF HINNOM,
Location Josh 15:8; 18:16; Jer. 31:40
“Pass thru the fire” 2 Chron. 28;1-3; 33:6; Jer. 7:31
Josiah defiles (2 Kings 23:10-14) So the godly Josiah defiled the valley, making it a receptacle of
carcass and criminals' corpses, in which worms were continually gendering. A perpetual fire was kept to
consume this putrefying matter; hence it became the image of that awful place where all that are unfit for
the holy city are cast out a prey to the ever gnawing "worm" of conscience from within and the
"unquenchable fire" of torments from without. Mark 9:42-50, "their worm dieth not." implies that not only
the worm but they also on whom it preys die not;(Fausset's Bible Dictionary)
