Did Jesus go to hell during the time that he was in the grave?

[bling]

Not in "hell".

 

[PatrickTate]

Not in "hell".

Matthew 12:39-41
He answered, “A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now something greater than Jonah is here.

 

[bob121]

There was no need for Jesus to go to Hell. However, those held there will know and hear Christ speak with all authority, confirming that they are there due to their rejection of the only Savior who can save anyone from the just sentence passed down upon the sinner.

 

[RDKirk]

Jesus went to the grave, best considered the Greek Hades."
He did not go to the place of eternal condemnation, not to either Gehenna or Tartarus.

I believe that this may be one of the most important topics to find out more about if we are to overcome our lukewarm and rather lazy attitude.

I knew about this from the Bible but I found it really hit me hard when I read what a near death experiencer had been shown about why Jesus not only was scourged and crucified for us but he also went to hell itself until His resurrection.

Our salvation costed Jesus even more than I had imagined in the past.

What Jesus did for all of us was planned from even before the creation of Adam and Eve.

Kinda sorta. He went to "hell" in the sense of "Hades" or "Sheol" a place of the dead, where some are tormented, and some comforted as Jesus described in Luke 16. He did not get tormented, but rather triumphed over the principalities/fallen angels that are imprisoned.
In Colossians 2:15, it is said He made a show and triumph over the principalities after dying on the cross. Basically arriving in Hades as the victor over it.
in 1 Peter 3, we have

18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;

so imprisoned spirits in Hades, He preached to them.

I agree.

Sounds like a jailbreak to me.

I wouldn't put too much stock in the stories of NDEer's

Seems like the majority of them end up in some skewered forms of theology of various sorts

Although a lot of them change for the better, regardless

Hell, in the application in question is "the grave."

There are some who believe the spirits of those who passed before Christ's death were held in Abraham's bosom, as noted in Luke 16. I think that may be a credible explanation.

Most scholars do not think the translation of "hell" in the common sense of the word, meaning the LoF, is even possible, because that "hell" has not yet arrived, theoretically

But I have heard some fiery sermons about Jesus going to hell for us. A little too much sensationalism for me, usually delivered to pick the pockets of the sheep

Jesus went down to the dead. Once he had done that, then i believe it became hell.....

When extra power and energy and understanding comes to heaven the stark contrast of hell would become even more noticeable. That is a very interesting way of looking at this Lost4words.

Here is one of the questions that has interested me for decades.....
does the Kingdom of Messiah Yeshua - Jesus eventually in a sense "Invade Hades and Sheol?"

And on that note why is the name "Azazel" in Leviticus 16 verse ten in the original Hebrew?

Does "Azazel" repent and get restored to Messiah Yeshua - Jesus and does play a role similar to General Abner who led the ten tribes over to King David after King Saul died?

Take a look at verse ten in the RSV:

"but the goat on which the lot fell for Aza′zel shall be presented alive before the Lord to make atonement over it, that it may be sent away into the wilderness to Aza′zel." [Leviticus 16:10 RSV]

Bible Gateway passage: Leviticus 16 - Revised Standard Version

The Day of Atonement - The LORD spoke to Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before the LORD and died; and the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron your brother not to come at all times into the holy place within the veil, before the mercy seat which is upon the ark...
