Bible Question: Greetings Joe, If He didn't go down to "get the keys" or "conquer death" what do you think He did do in the grave for those 3 days and 3 nights? prayon |
Bible Answer: Prayon What make you think the keys were in Hades? God had the keys to death, hell and the grave (See Job) and now Jesus does. Jesus' body was in the ground for 3 days His Spirit/Soul first went to Heaven to present his blood upon the altar Hebrews 9:11-24. He then went to Hades to preach the "Good News" and lead captivity captive to heaven. Where else He went and what else He did we do not know. We are not given the exact sequence I listed above but considering what needed to be accomplished that seems the most logical. EdB |
