Bible Question: Does anyone have scripture about if people went to Heaven in the Old testament? They did not know Jesus so how did they get to Heaven? |
Bible Answer: Old Testament Saints went to Hades/Hell and waited in Abraham's Bosom or paradise until Jesus died. Then upon His death Jesus preached the 'Good News" to them and lead captivity captive to heaven Eph 4:8. Read Luke 16 beginning in verse 19 for a picture of Hades/hell before Christ death. EdB |
