Is Hell Really in the Bible?

Where did the idea of hell come from? Did Jesus actually teach eternal torment, or did those ideas develop over time? Bart Ehrman joins us to explore the origins and evolution of hell, tracing how beliefs about the afterlife changed from the Hebrew Bible to the early Christians. We'll discuss where the concept came from, how it reshaped Jesus' message, and why these questions still matter today. 🔗 Want to go deeper?
