AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 3:19 in which He also went and preached to the spirits now in prison, |
Bible Question:
What was Peter Talking about when he talked about Jesus preaching to spirits in prison |
Bible Answer: This certainly does not mean that these people are now hearing the Gospel, Since it is appointed for man once to die and then face the judgment Heb.9:27. If you use Strong's concordance on the word "preached" it can mean proclaim and in this context and the greater context of scripture I believe that is what is being said. Jesus is proclaiming His victory over sin via the cross and the resurrection. Hope that helps.. Be sure to check the concordance on the words used that passage. In Christ, Brad |
