Biblical Languages 301 Guidelines
This is where we come to delve into the biblical text. Theology is not our foremost thought, but we realize it is something that will be dealt with in nearly every conversation. Feel free to use the original languages to make your point (meaning Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic). This is an exegetical discussion area, so please limit topics to purely biblical ones.
This is not the section for debates between theists and atheists. While a theistic viewpoint is not required for discussion in this area, discussion does presuppose a respect for the integrity of the Biblical text (or the willingness to accept such a presupposition for discussion purposes) and a respect for the integrity of the faith of others and a lack of an agenda to undermine the faith of others.

ἀπόλλυμι means "be destroyed". The angel of the bottomless pit (Rev. 9:11) is named Apollyon, "the destroyer".
"Death" is θάνατος.Veritas vos Liberabit<>< Learn Greek <>< Look here for an Orthodox Church in America<><Ancient Faith Radio

I recommend you do not try too hard and ...research as little as possible. Such weighty things give me a headache. - Shunyadragon, Baha'i apologist

Just looking at the uses of "perish" in various texts it seem to point to something being destroyed.
One can act in such a way so as to destroy one relationship with God by not doing as he says. (it perishes.)
But in the long run it seems to point out that all faithful humans will live forever and faithless be destroyed or "perish" forever.
