Not sure what you mean by this but I find it interesting that 'hell' does not appear in Paul's letters. He did talk about judgment and 'the wrath to come'. Jesus was the main NT preacher on hell.

My father was a street preaching man that often referred to hell from Jesus teachings. He preached salvation as being set free from the power of sin, from the penalty of sin (hell) and someday from the very presence of sin when we meet Jesus.
