Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Letter to the Rev. Bernard Whitman, on the Term Gehenna, Rendered Hell in the Common Version
You say Now the learned commentators of all de nominations contend, 'that the name of this loathsome, and fiery, and wormy valley, was afterwards used as an emblem of the future punishment of the wicked. They contend that our Saviour used gehenna to signify the tor ment which awaited the sinful in another existence.' To this, sir, I answer. 1. The commentators contend, that Jesus Christ is the Supreme God. But you deny this. And if their contending for a doctrine is good evi dence of its truth, Unitarianism is a mass of falsehood. Why then use an argument, which destroys your own system It is what commentators prove, not what they contend for, any of us ought to care about.
