As promised in these pages, we give the complete list of references to
sheol and hades, the study of which words is that which most immediately
concerns us. We do not ask the reader to pick and choose his references
neither do we offer merely selected texts, but rather to seek from them all
their testimony, whether found in the Old Testament or the New, and to
receive as a result a conception that shall not be at variance with any
statement of truth, but which shall be in harmony with all that is written.
When we therefore appeal to this evidence, we are not making an appeal
to prejudice, referring to three or four carefully selected passages; and,
moreover, although we refer you, dear reader, to seventy -six references
instead of three, we refrain from saying that you will be a deliberate
deceiver if you do not endorse what we have put forward. We desire for
ourselves as for you, the truth, and that is found alone in the Word of God.
Again we would ask the reader to notice our bias! We have given sixty -five
references in the Old Testament and only eleven in the New. Does this prove
that we are to be regarded with suspicion? At any rate when we make our
appeal to this evidence, none can call our motives in question, for we are
but tabulating actual occurrences.
