what does the bible say?
According to ancient Greek mythology, Tartarus was a low place, possibly underground, of torturous existence where the wicked are sent to suffer. Tartarus was a place for horrible monsters and the vilest criminals. Tartarus is mentioned in 2 Peter 2:4 as the place where God cast angels who sinned, translating to "hell" in this context. It serves as a warning against false teaching and deception, emphasizing the consequences of leading others astray. Tartarus symbolizes the punishment for disobedience and the seriousness of upholding sound doctrine.
