Cutaway Earth with molten hell at the center, after Peleg's tectonics and radial shrinkage

Four different Biblical phrases refer to a feature of the internal structure of the Earth. They confirm our hypothesis that the interior of the Earth was tehom before Noah's flood, and sheol after it.

One of the repercussions of the fall of man was the start of nuclear decay. This in turn is the beginning of hell, since the explosive rate of decay, concentrated in the core of the Earth, caused the core to melt.

The Bottomless Pit

Cutaway of planet Earth showing the crust, mantle, great gulf and hell.

A gravitational singularity at the center of the Earth stopped time. If time slows down the closer we get to it, then we'll never get there. It's a relativistic conundrum, and the center of the Earth has an event horizon.

If you're on a downward course and leave the lower mantle, once you enter the great gulf, there's nothing to stop your fall into the core. This means that the pit refers to everything below the mantle.
