[TulsaDavid]

Bro B, that is wrong in a number of ways. First, it's the smoke fumes of the ordealing torment (torture), that is ascending into the eons of eons. They are not having rest day and night. Ashes don't suffer unceasing torture. The smoke is no symble of the agony unbelievers endured (as if that is past tense). This is a continuous verb form AND a continuous context. There is no skirting around the weight of this verse defining an eternal torture. The smoke is an effect, not an after-effect.

Great wishful thinking that if one doesn't make it, their punishment is not forever. Only problem, it's totally fictitious.
