This didn't seem to reach b-Hebrew, so I'm sending it again---hope
it doesn't come twice.

I agree and my point was that the translation of the Hebrew word
"sheol," should be "sheol" and not "hell" since this (sheol) doesn't
function as hell. "Hell" should be used when judgment and
punishment are meant---probably in the Christian scriptures and in
some of pseuepigraphic writings.
