Mark 9:43 Commentary - Whedon's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments
43. The fire that never shall be quenched Our Lord gives a stronger expression than Isa 66:24, presents. It is not simply “shall not be quenched,” but “never” shall be quenched. This carries the thought far beyond the mere temporal fires of Hinnom, even to that unquenchable fire for which he uses the fire of Hinnom as a figure. Jesus repeats the expression with great solemnity thrice, as if to show that the highest possible meaning was to be attributed to his word.
