Hell Terminology (Sheol/Hades/Gehenna/Lake of Fire)

The verse speaks of being brought back "from the pit" and "enlightened with the light of the living," which, at face value, suggests a return from a state of death or grave-like existence to life, rather than a specific place or state of eternal punishment like Gehenna or the Lake of Fire.

Sheol / The Grave

The verse speaks of being brought "from the pit" to be "enlightened with the light of the living," suggesting a rescue from a perilous state rather than a description of the state of the dead. The "pit" could refer to a life-threatening illness or danger, not necessarily the literal grave or underworld.
