nether parts of the earth
Ezekiel 31:18
31:18 nether parts of the earth. Like the pompous king of Assyria, who was cast down to hell (Hebrew sheol, Ezekiel 31:16), the equally arrogant Pharaoh would also descend into hell, the same as “the pit” and “the nether parts of the earth.” The Hebrew sheol corresponds to hades in the Greek.
