Where was Jesus between his death and resurrection?

[TonyChanYT]

When a person dies, he goes to Sheol/Hades, where time stands still.

Where did Jesus go when he died?

He went to Hades, the dwelling place of the dead. Matthew 12:

40 For just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

John 19:

30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

Jesus' suffering was finished, no further suffering in Hades. He did not go to the fiery hell. In any case, I think the fiery hell is the lake of fire. That will not occur until the last day after the general resurrection.

Matthew 27:

50 And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit.
51 And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and the rocks were split. 52 The tombs also were opened. And many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised, 53 and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

Elisha's bones resurrected a dead man in 2 Kings 13:21. Jesus' physical death resurrected a bunch of men. These were righteous people who were given an extension of life on earth.

What did Jesus do?

Jesus, in spirit without the physical body, proclaimed the gospel to the dead in 1 Peter 3:

18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit, 19 in which he went and proclaimed to the spirits in prison.

The unrighteous died without knowing Jesus.

1 Peter 4:

6 For this is why the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though judged in the flesh the way people are, they might live in the spirit the way God does.

Ephesians 4:

8 Therefore it says, “When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men.” 9 In saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower regions, the earth?

i.e., Hades, the dwelling place of the dead.

After Jesus died, his spirit descended to the spiritual realm of Hades, where time stood still. He preached the gospel to the dead, who would be resurrected on the last day.

100% completely dead - totally ceased to exist, as all dead people currently are.

To say otherwise is to totally remove both his death and God's victory of the flesh.

I believe Jesus is God in flesh. Maybe he just disappeared between his death and resurrection. He did have a way of suddenly reappearing and disappearing before he ascended into heaven, didn't he?

One's spirit goes to Paradise, just like Jesus showed in the Luke 16 chapter. One side is where Abraham is, represented the saved, and the other side across a great fixed gulf is hell, where the rich man was taken to.

Where did Jesus go when he died?
He went to Hades, the dwelling place of the dead. Matthew 12:

1 Peter 3 and 1 Peter 4 reveals Jesus went and preached The Gospel to the 'dead', the "spirits in prison", so they could live according to God in the spirit. That was Old Testament prophecy that Jesus would do that at His 1st coming, and lead the prisoners out of the darkness of Satan's prison house (Isaiah 42:7).

Jesus' suffering was finished, no further suffering in Hades.

Jesus NEVER suffered in Hades. Don't know where you got that false idea, likely from not understanding the Acts 2:27 verse.

Acts 2:27
27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
KJV

Suffer there simply means 'not allow'. Jesus' flesh body would NOT be allowed to see corruption of the grave like our flesh bodies do. Instead, Jesus' literal flesh was 'transformed' or 'translated' to the heavenly body by The Spirit, like 1 Peter 3 showed...

1 Peter 3:18-19
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;
KJV

 

[Jack]

I think Kenneth Copeland teaches that Jesus suffered in Hell between death and resurrection.

Do I believe that? NO WAY!

For the unsaved, yes. to await Judgment Day.

Where did Jesus go when he died?

He went to Hades, the dwelling place of the dead.

You're in ERROR!! When a saved person dies, his spirit goes back to be with God in heaven just as with the Lord Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:8).
Just before Jesus died He cried with a loud voice, "Father into thy hands I commend my spirit!!"
You see, Jesus could NEVER have gone to hades, but to heaven.

Aren't you the one who said babies will burn in Hell???

 

[JunChosen]

Aren't you the one who said babies will burn in Hell???

Yes!! All unsaved persons including unsaved babies go to hell without a savior. What didn't you know that all babies are not innocent? READ PSALMS 58:3-8 BELOW:

3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
4 Their poison [is] like the poison of a serpent: [they are] like the deaf adder [that] stoppeth her ear;
5 Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.
6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.
7 Let them melt away as waters [which] run continually: [when] he bendeth [his bow to shoot] his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.
8 As a snail [which] melteth, let [every one of them] pass away: [like] the untimely birth of a woman, [that] they may not see the sun.

There are those that believe babies are innocent, NOT according to God!!

Some Christians believe there is an "Age of Accountability" And they point to the story of king David's son whom God took away at the age of two.

But I say if there is an age of accountability, then we should look to Israel's forty years wondering in the wilderness and only those twenty and under were allowed to continue to the land of promise. But that is impossible.

I fail to see what has babies to do with the subject at hand anyway???

[Jack]

Yes!! All unsaved persons including unsaved babies go to hell without a savior.

Nah, those who say babies go to Hell are the ones heading for Hell fire FOREVER!

Then you don't believe the Bible although it is God's word!!! Read Psalms 58 again!!!

By the way, there is NO HELL FIRE FOREVER!!! That's how much you know about Bible doctrines and it's interpretations.

13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. (Revelation 20:13-14).

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. (Revelation 21:4).

To God Be The Glory

 

[Jack]

Then you don't believe the Bible although it is God's word!!! Read Psalms 58 again!!!

I certainly believe you twist the Hell out of the Bible!

Revelation 20:10
10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

By the way, there is NO HELL FIRE FOREVER!!! That's how much you know about Bible doctrines and it's interpretations.

If you're wrong you'll burn in Hell FOREVER.

13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. (Revelation 20:13-14).

Death NEVER means cease to exist in the Bible! Billions will wish they cease to exist!

Revelation 20:10
10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. (Revelation 21:4).

To God Be The Glory

That's ONLY for God's people!

Revelation 20:10
10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Babies don't burn in Hell but those who say babies burn in Hell will!

100% completely dead - totally ceased to exist, as all dead people currently are.

To say otherwise is to totally remove both his death and God's victory of the flesh.

Jesus did not spiritually die nor did His soul die. Just his body died as all humans do. OUr souls and spirits are immortal.

God does not fit inside of any box you create. This includes one that requires the box of time.
God is both in time, outside of time and the barrier between the two realities.

The same as his Father David, though he did not remain "in" the grave as we know

“Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. Acts 2:29
