This would have been impossible if hell were a place of fire. Eze. 32:26-30 gives a picture of the mighty warriors of the nations around, lying at peace in their graves: "The mighty that are fallen (in battle)...which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads...they shall lie...with them that go down to the pit". This refers to the custom of burying warriors with their weapons, and resting the head of the corpse upon its sword.
Ezek. 32: 26- 30 inatoa picha ya mashujaa wa vita wa mataifa yaliyowazunguka, wanalala kwa amani katika makaburi yao: "Mashujaa wao ….. walioanguka (katika vita) walioshuka kuzimu pamoja na silaha zao za vita: ambazo wameweka panga chini ya vichwa vyao ….. wamelala ….. pamoja nao washukao shimoni"Hapa tunatajiwa desturi za mashujaa kuzikwa na silaha zao na kukilaza kichwa cha maiti juu ya upanga wake.
