The fire of Gehenna that is wielded in the Bible and the Koran is nothing other than Samsara.
The absence of nirvana (extinction)
Fire is that which is not extinguished: the cycle of suffering to which he ties himself
The fire of Gehenna is the distance from the divine hearth.
In the heart of God, there is no suffering, the fire does not consume, it does not burn.
In the fire of Gehenna, the being destroys itself again and again by its distance.
He is himself, he and all distant beings, are themselves the materials that feed the fires that consume them.
They throw their souls, their bodies to the pyre that carries them away.
Behind the terms of the holy books we must see the voluntary, unconscious and voluntary participation in the infernal pyre.
This would then be nothing other than their consented suffering.
Unconscious and consented.
Also, I perceive a morbid addiction to the sensations of burning.
In their distancing, the beings in Gehenna confuse existence and burning. Existence and suffering.
This sensation of consumed flesh is their relation to existence.
In their erroneous perceptions, it is necessary for them to suffer in order to exist, through the burns, the cries, they feel that they exist, they think they are « existing »
It is in reality none other than themselves who maintain themselves thus and gesticulate among the flames.
Addiction to morbid thoughts, swirling in games of identification is the psychological form of the torture of Gehenna.

Historically, I believe it was a burning rubbish dump. I suppose that fits the metaphor, as well.
