How could Jesse do this?
Over the four seasons of Preacher, we are given a pretty good idea of how Genesis works and what it can and cannot do:
Genesis is not a genie and cannot just bend the reality according to its host's wishes. It only affects intelligent beings' minds to make them obey to verbal commands of the host. Affected persons execute the command immediately and utterly.
This comes with pretty logical restrictions related to verbal commands:
The person must be able to hear the command. Being deaf or using earplugs makes one immune to Genesis powers.
E.g. the Grail successfully uses military grade ear protection when confronting Jesse Custer, or brings in a deaf person to be able to communicate with him without the use of spoken words.
The person must be able to understand the language in which the command is spoken.
E.g. when Jesse commands the two cameleers to reconcile, one obeys and the other does not because he does not speak English.
The person must be able to execute the command.
E.g. when Jesse orders the badly hurt pilot to not die, he dies anyway, because it's beyond him to stay alive at this point.
With that being the case, how could Jesse send Eugene to hell by ordering him to "Go to hell"? Was it clearly not within the boy's power to execute that command?
Best Answer
According to the Fandom page
The Word of God also grants Jesse authority over the souls of others and where they reside, as he commanded Eugene to "go to hell" and a moment later Eugene vanished, awakening in hell.
So perhaps Eugene's soul could go straight to hell under Genesis orders. It seems there's no problem coming back to the living world in tangible/physical form as we see later on with the Saint of Killers and others,
like Eugene and Hitler.

Why did Jesse suffer so much in Breaking Bad?
The fault for so much of Jesse's tragedy is not in himself, but in Walt. \u201cHis humanity has been stolen from him, largely by Walt's cruelty. It's Walt's fault he is being held captive by Jack and his army.\u201dHow long was Jesse tortured for?
The series ended with White dying from a gunshot wound after using a remote-controlled machine gun to kill an Aryan Brotherhood gang and free Pinkman, who had been held captive for six months. \u201cEl Camino\u201d picks up after a scar-faced, dusty Pinkman flees the bloody scene in a stolen El Camino vehicle.Did Jesse snitch?
Because moments before, Hank (Dean Norris) arrived on the scene, having tailed the kid himself, and he manages to talk Jesse down and encourage him to cooperate, so they can both bring down Walt together. How? By Jesse turning snitch.Did Walt care about Jesse?
Walt does care for Jesse in his unusual way He overtly says as much in season 2's "Phoenix," when he meets up with Jane Margolis' (Krysten Ritter) father Donald (John de Lancie) by happenstance and refers to Jesse as his "nephew," whose well-being Walt is concerned with.I'M 8 MONTHS PREGNANT, IT'S ALMOST TIME! \u0026 My Baby Shower :')
