Death and Hades is a phrase that means "the unseen realm of the dead." It is a label, a title, not two distinct places or things. It is not death and/or hades too. It is "Death and Hades", one place, namely hell, the dwelling place of all the lost dead until they are thrown into the lake of fire to die the second death forever.
Check out Rev 1:18 and Luke 16:23 to cross reference.

Rev 1:18 et vivus et fui mortuus et ecce sum vivens in saecula saeculorum et habeo claves mortis[b:e8c3ffce73](death)[/b:e8c3ffce73] et inferni [b:e8c3ffce73](hell)[/b:e8c3ffce73].
In the koine, thanatos and hades.
So, is not hades the realm of suffering before the final judgment and the eternal torment of hell ??
Hence the second death. ([i:e8c3ffce73]haec est mors secund[/i:e8c3ffce73])
Gehenna is a metaphor for hell, the eternal torment of the damned.

in my opinion
TO me it seem that Death and Hades are personified as being cast permenently away from the new Heavens and new Earth. I take these to mean that Physical death and a fearful place of punishment are cast away, and not to be considered as a posiblility in that new eternal life.
Peace and Grace in Christ!

If death is thrown into the lake of fire, along with the place of torment (Hades), then does this give support to Annihilationism?
[/quote:8fc3986a70]
No because the Stagnum Ignis (Lake Of Fire) is still something that exists. Annihilation is non-existence.
"The worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched."
If the worm does not die in that state of "death", why would reprobate man ? And if the fire is not quenched there must be perpetual fuel. . . the souls of the damned.
