Did Jesus go to hell and were can you found it in the bible?
This was open to translation. It never actually said he went to hell, but it did say that he ascended and descended in Ephesians 4. Some people believe that Adam and Eve's sin closed the gates of heaven, and all souls went to the land of the dead, called Sheol. This was not the fiery pits of hell that are described later in the Bible, but more like a holding place for everyone that died. Part of this line of thought is that when Jesus died, he ascended to reopen the gates of Heaven, the descended into Sheol to make the proclamation.

If Jesus descended into Hell and he was the prophesied Savior did he save all those who were in Hell?
AnswerJesus did not descend into the Hell of the damned. He descended into the place that was called synonymously in the Bible "hell" or "the bosom of Abraham" also known as "the limbo of the fathers". Since the gates of heaven were shut the righteous souls of those that had died were here waiting to go to Heaven. Thus Jesus descended into hell that He might manifest Himself to them, granting them the Beatific Vision and thus heaven.However, for those who are in the Hell of the damned, they never saw Christ. Revelations in the Bible says that everyone will be pulled out of both "death" and "hell and judged for the second death at the Last Judgment.

Who ascended into heaven?
Let's first know what is heaven? Then you will get your answer. 'Heaven' and 'hell' are obviously for the mind, they do not have any existence elsewhere. So 'heaven' is a situation in which the mind gets what contends it deeply, a relaxation. That relaxation is not possible in the otherwise agitated life. Common life is sheer agitation. Right? Provocation, agitation, excitement, and the resultant frustration. 'Heaven' is the company that on one hand relaxes you, and on the other hand gives you the courage that it can happen! That it is not impossible, that the situation is not hopeless. "I can be free! My deepest dreams were not just nonsense. There were there to be realized. They can be realized!" You are struggling, laboring, somehow carrying yourself on, trudging and taking life as drudgery. You have given up all hope, and then the hope is rekindled. That is 'heaven'. And not only is it a hope that something can happen in the future, it is there for the taking. Extend your hand and take it! That is 'heaven'. Everything is neither 'heaven' nor 'hell'. 'Heaven' exists for us because we are distant from the truth. When you are far something, only then it seems like 'heaven'. We said that the world is a gateway to the beyond. Beyond, there is no 'heaven' or 'hell'! There is just an empty stillness. 'Heaven' is for the one who has lost his way and who suddenly gets a guide. 'Hell' is when you have lost your way, and there are voices around that say that you cannot go back, that there is no home. A point comes where there is neither 'heaven' nor 'hell'. So, from 'hell' to 'heaven' and then 'beyond'!
