Hell is eternal because Saul said so.An eternal hell is not now and has never been part of Jewish teaching. The Jewish idea of hell is like the Christian purgatory.IE Everyone eventually gets out. There is even a list so you can work out how long you will need to stay..

I have never understood how it's possible for a finite being to either please or offend an infinite one possessing infinite qualities of justice, mercy and compassion..
