欣嫩子谷גיא בן הינום‬;古希臘語γέεννα)),又称欣嫩谷,是耶路撒冷的一个谷地。

阿拉伯語中,稱欣嫩子谷為「拉巴比乾河」(阿拉伯语:وادي الربابة‎,羅馬化Wadi er-Rababi[1]

希伯来圣经中,第一次提及於猶大支派的領地,作為耶布斯的南界[2]犹大诸王在此以火獻祭自己孩子給摩洛克的地方[3][4] 。此后,这个地方便被认为受到了诅咒[5],不同於「地府」(希伯來語שְׁאוֹל‎‎,羅馬化:Sheol[6],作為「煉獄」的代名詞。[7][8]

基督教新約文本中,亦作為煉獄使用。[9]

  5. ^ Jewish Encyclopedia: Gehenna页面存档备份,存于互联网档案馆): "The place where children were sacrificed to the god Moloch was originally in the "valley of the son of Hinnom," to the south of Jerusalem (Josh. xv. 8, passim; II Kings xxiii. 10; Jer. ii. 23; vii. 31-32; xix. 6, 13-14). For this reason the valley was deemed to be accursed, and "Gehenna" therefore soon became a figurative equivalent for "hell.""

  7. ^ Kohler, Kaufmann; Ludwig Blau (1906). "Gehenna: Sin and Merit页面存档备份,存于互联网档案馆)" Jewish Encyclopedia: "It is frequently said that certain sins will lead man into Gehenna. The name 'Gehenna' itself is explained to mean that unchastity will lead to Gehenna ('Er. 19a); so also will adultery, idolatry, pride, mockery, hypocrisy, anger, etc. (Soṭah 4b, 41b; Ta'an. 5a; B. B. 10b, 78b; 'Ab. Zarah 18b; Ned. 22a)." "Hell页面存档备份,存于互联网档案馆)". Catholic Encyclopedia: "[I]n the New Testament the term Gehenna is used more frequently in preference to hades, as a name for the place of punishment of the damned.... [The Valley of Hinnom was] held in abomination by the Jews, who, accordingly, used the name of this valley to designate the abode of the damned (Targ. Jon., Gen., iii, 24; Henoch, c. xxvi). And Christ adopted this usage of the term."
