The Gates of Hell

The Gates of Hell is a real place.

Jesus took his disciples on a 14-hour hike to declare his divinity there, which suggests there was something important about the place.

The Iron and Myth crew joins us this month to discuss Sharon and Derek Gilbert’s new book, The Gates of Hell: Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview with the Giant; Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods; and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the theological thriller Cruel Logic, and the new novels Judah Maccabee Parts 1 & 2.

We delve into the concept of the ‘Gates of Hell,’ exploring its literal and metaphorical implications.

Did you know that a more accurate translation of the term is “Gates of Hades”?

We discuss the historical and spiritual significance of various locations, including Caesarea Philippi and Babel, and how these relate to ancient practices of necromancy and communication with the spirit realm. 

Our conversation also touches on the connections between Jesus’ baptism and cosmic geography, as well as the relevance of ancient cultures like the Hurrians in understanding these themes.

We focus on the place of Jesus’ baptism, the land of Bashan, and the implications of megalithic structures exploring the legacy of the Nephilim and their connection to modern spiritual practices, including the role of artificial intelligence in shaping contemporary beliefs.

Derek’s new book The Gates of Hell is now available in paperback (https://amzn.to/4esHHgu), Kindle (https://amzn.to/3XR6KnV), and as an audiobook at Audible (https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Gates-…!
