On Monday, we read Numbers 16:33, about how the Tribe of Reuven
went down alive into Sheol, with all that belonged to them; the earth closed over them and they vanished from the midst of the congregation.
😬
So what is this Sheol, anyway? What happens after the maws of the earth open and slurp you down, exactly?
I thought it might be worthwhile to look at that, and other afterlife-related bits today. (At least: Some of them. There are a Lot Of Afterlife Thoughts in Judaism. Maybe I'll make this an occasional ongoing series?)
