And since the Fall of the Man, the Hell became a place of pain and suffering for anyone who were evildoers for all the life.

@powerofk 3 года назад

@@Gingersnaps_the_pumpkin_kitty The New Testament writers did in fact use the Greco-Roman Hades and Tartarus as an image of the Christian version of the afterlife of the damned. Jesus himself often used the Hinnom Valley south of Jerusalem (Gehenna) as the image because it had been used first as a place where human sacrifice (by fire) was offered, and later as a garbage dump where the garbage was constantly being incinerated. Simply put, both Jesus and the NT writers used images and terms their audiences (Jesus's primary audience was Jewish; most of the NT writers had a Greco-Roman audience) would understand. Of course, the name Hell that English-speakers use to describe this comes from the Norse. Oddly enough, Latin-based languages simply use the term "Inferno" (literally "raging fire").

this made me realize how many variations are there of there myths. According to what i read Tartarus was basicly a sky underground as in a humungous pit, mortal spirits werent allowed there and only the monsters gained punishment there. It was also the place were dead monsters reformed and new were created. I also read that in the underworld there 3 places you could go to( excluding Tartarus , the fields of punishment, elsyum( that paradise place, i dunno how to spell it) and a place called Asphodel where you went because you were neither bad nor good. I was also informed that the guardian of Tartarus was a monster called Kampe.

I gotta say your mythology research and presentation is the best out there. BUT... what's even better are your product ads. Freakkingg Fireeee

i love that you're referencing hades, i hope you've tried the game out because it's so well researched and well designed with its references. it took me a while to appreciate the gameplay but the story was so compelling and informative i couldn't put it down

I think also in greek mythology if you were good soul but you didn't do anything too heroic you went to Asphodel it was a form of meadow similar to Elysium but it was for neutral souls. 5:32 please play that game too it's fantastic

@chaosdragon-fox1864 3 года назад

Yes, Asphodel was the middle ground. Pity noone talks about it.

I like Tantalus' story. And Salmoneus has an episode of Hercules the Animated series that's really good. I would probably take Tantalus' punishment too.

Anyone else got frustrated that Eris wasn't mentioned in this video, despite Sinbad, from dreamworks, basically showing her as the queen of Tartarus? I feel lied to.

@LuinTathren 3 года назад

You should feel lied to. Dreamworks' Sinbad was not accurate. Probably because it was fiction. Wikipedia has a fairly good article on Eris (Roman name Discordia). The myth is far better than what is portrayed in Sinbad. One of her exploits might even be the basis of the story of Sleeping Beauty.

@chaosdragon-fox1864 3 года назад
