Thanks Andy.
And I am certain that nothing essential was lost in translation or copying.
But I am more interested about the invention of the Hell, originally Helviti. Jesus, as a Jew was talking about Gehenna which was not a place of torture and suffering according the Jewish tradition.
I think that Hell is the greatest corruption of Christian religion.

I only know what the early fathers say Jesus said:

The doctrine of hell is so frightening that numerous heretical sects end up denying the reality of an eternal hell. The Unitarian-Universalists, the Seventh-day Adventists, the Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Christadelphians, the Christian Scientists, the Religious Scientists, the New Agers, and the Mormons—all have rejected or modified the doctrine of hell so radically that it is no longer a serious threat. In recent decades, this decay has even invaded mainstream Evangelicalism, and a number of major Evangelical figures have advocated the view that there is no eternal hell—the wicked will simply be annihilated.
But the eternal nature of hell is stressed in the New Testament. For example, in Mark 9:47–48 Jesus warns us, "[I]t is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, where the worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched." And in Revelation 14:11, we read: "And the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever; and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name."
Hell is not just a theoretical possibility. Jesus warns us that real people go there. He says, "Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is easy, that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few" (Matt. 7:13–14). ...

Does hell exist?Sacred Scripture clearly attests to a place of eternal damnation called hell or sometimes referred to as Gehenna. Examples include the following: Jesus said that the angry man who holds his brother in contempt “risks the fires of Gehenna” (Matthew 5:22). Our Lord warned, “Do not fear those who deprive the body of life but cannot destroy the soul. Rather, fear him who can destroy both body and soul in Gehenna” (Matthew 10:28). Jesus said, “If your hand is your difficulty, cut it off! Better for you to enter life maimed than to keep both hands and enter Gehenna with its unquenchable fire” (Mark 9:43). Using a parable of the weeds and the wheat to describe the final judgment, Jesus foretold, “The angels will hurl [the evildoers] into the fiery furnace where they will wail and grind their teeth” (Matthew 13:42). Similarly, when Jesus spoke of the last judgment where the sheep will be separated from the goats, He will say to the wicked, “Out of my sight, you condemned, into that everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels!” (Matthew 25:41). Finally, in the Book of Revelation, each person is judged individually and the evildoers are cast into “the fiery pool of burning sulphur, the second death” (Revelation 20:13-14; 21:8).
Just for clarification, Gehenna was a valley south of Jerusalem which was infamous for pagan sacrifices of children by fire. The prophet Jeremiah cursed the place and predicted it would be a place of death and corruption. In later rabbinic literature, the term identified the place of eternal punishment with tortures and unquenchable fire for the wicked.
Therefore, the Church has consistently taught that hell indeed exists. Those souls who die in a state of mortal sin immediately descend to eternal punishment in hell. The punishment of hell is primarily the eternal separation from God. Here one suffers the sense of loss– the loss of God’s love, the loss of life with God, and the loss of happiness: True love, life, and happiness are rooted in God, and each person longs for them. However, only in Him will man find his fulfillment. (Cf. Catechism #1035).
The damned person also suffers pain. Given the descriptions of “fire,” the apostolic constitution Benedictus Deus (1336) of Pope Benedict XII said that the souls would “suffer the pain of hell,” and the Council of Florence (1439) decreed that the souls would be “punished with different punishments.”
