Bible Note: I'm not basing my note on 1 Peter, that is definitely about Noah. But Luke 23:43 very clearly shows that Jesus at least went to Paradise. How could the thief be with Him on that day in Paradise if He didn't go there? And again, it indeed does not say (in words) that He preached to the souls there, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Isaiah, Daniel, etc., all those who looked forward to the Cross. But it would not surprise me a bit to learn that He did preach the gospel to them, or at least told them their time of waiting for their Kinsman Redeemer was fulfilled in Him. We will learn about it all in heaven at His blessed feet one day. in love Cheri |
