The concept of hell as a place of punishment or torment has theological origins in various ancient cultures and religious traditions, rather than being invented by a singular individual. It is notably featured in religious texts such as The Bible, the Quran, and in mythologies from different regions.

How many times was hell written in the Old Testament?

None. The Israelites believed in the concept of Sheol, which is literally the "Grave". This was incorrectly translated as "Hell" in the 17th Century, but in modern translations, you will not find the word, "Hell" anywhere in the Old Testament. Now, it is correctly translated, "Grave". In the Old Testament, the afterlife was a mystery, and Israelites had no concept of Hell. It was sometime during the 400 years between the end of the Old Testament and the birth of Jesus Christ, that the Pharisees and Essenes started believing in the concept of Hell. The Sadducees however, did not believe in Hell.
