Vita Min, you are incorrect in what you are saying and you are incorrect in what you seem to be implying. You seem to imply that it's okay to be a racist because a bad Jew coined the term. He did not. Trotsky certainly used the term. But if you do a quick internet search, you'll see that it was used before Trotsky. It's an urban legend that he used it first. Often, extreme conservatives and neo-Nazis use this legend to defend their racist behavior. It's wrong to condemn and entire race of people because we don't like something that some of them, or even many of them, do or don't do. We are individuals who are accountable for our own behavior.

Gehenna Valley

Bible Book: Matthew Type: Maps Location: Bethany, Gehenna Valley, Gethsemane, Israel, Jerusalem, Jerusalem Temple, Judea, Judean badlands, Kidron Valley, Mount of Olives Era: Jesus

Gehenna Valley. Once apparently a city dump for Jerusalem and possibly a place where Israelites sacrifice to idos. Jesus used it as a symbol of God's punishment for sin, perhaps because some thought that the idol sacrifices offered there were a reason God let the Jews get conquered and exiled. When Jesus talks about the valley in those terms, translators created an English word to express the idea: Hell.
