Did Jesus go to hell

Answer 1

Acts 2:25,31 "For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell [the grave], neither his flesh did see corruption."

Upon his death, just as all men who have died, Jesus went to the grave.

The word hell in Biblical text is the Hebrew word sheol, or hadës in Greek. Sheol is the state of gravedom in which there is no consciousness. For three days and three nights, Jesus had no consciousness.

Psalms 146:4 "His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish."

As prophesied, Christ was raised from the dead after three days and nights.

I Corinthians 15:3,4 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"

Answer 2

Yes. How so? Consider what The Bible teaches about hell to begin with. The term 'hell' as used in scripture comes from the Greek and Hebrew words 'Sheol' and 'Hades', both which refer to the common grave of mankind (& even animals). When one goes there, they return "to dust", a.k.a. break down to the bare elements they were created from and cease to exist. (Ecclesiastes 3:19-20) During the breakdown process, the person knows/feels nothing; completely unconscious. (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6 & 10)

When Jesus died he too went to 'hell', at the time having a fleshly body of "corruption", and was then resurrected by Jehovah God. (Acts 2:27; 3:15)

Answer 3

Hell.

Definition: The word "hell" is found in many Bible translations. In the same verses other translations read " The grave ", " the world of the dead," and so forth. Those words are in Hebrew she'ohl' and in Greek equivalent hai'des, which refer, not to an individual burial place, but to the common grave of dead mankind; also the Greek ge.en.na, which is used as a symbol of eternal destruction.

According to Matthew 16: 21 Jesus told his disciples that that he would be killed, and on the third day be raised. So yes we can say that Jesus was in his grave ( in hell ) for three days.

However, both in Christendom and many non-Christian religions it is taught that hell is a place inhabited by demons and where the wicked , after death , are punished ( and some believe that this is with torment)

Does the Bible indicate whether the dead experience pain?

According to Eccl 9: 5, 10: " The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all... All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in the Sheol, the place to which you are going.

So to answer your question whether Jesus went to hell. Jesus was in the grave for three days. The word gave which originates from the word She'ohl, hai'des or ge.en.na refers to the place of people's burial place and has nothing to do with a place of tormented by demons.

Answer 4

Let's clarify that the concept of "hell" is often misunderstood. In the Bible, the word "hell" is translated from the Greek word "hades," which refers to a place of separation from God, not necessarily a fiery pit of eternal torment.

Now, regarding Jesus' journey, the Bible does say that after his crucifixion, he "descended into the lower parts of the earth" (Ephesians 4:9) and "preached to the spirits in prison" (1 Peter 3:19). Some interpretations suggest that Jesus went to a spiritual realm, often referred to as the " underworld" or "hades," to proclaim victory over sin and death to those who had died before his time on earth.

But it's essential to note that Jesus did not go to hell in the classical sense. He did not experience the wrath of God or the punishment for sin, as he was sinless. Instead, his journey was a triumphant declaration of his power over death and the forces of darkness.

In psychological terms, this concept can be seen as a symbol of Jesus' ability to confront and overcome the deepest fears and anxieties of humanity. By facing the unknown and the darkness, Jesus demonstrates his capacity to bring hope and redemption to those who feel lost and separated from God.

Answer 5

Jesus travelled all over the lands of Judea, Galilee and the surrounding areas during His physical lifetime. He appeared there to more than 500 people after His resurrection. He said that He would be in paradise the day of His death with the thief on the cross. And He said He goes to prepare a place for those who trust in Him. He is at the right hand of the Father.

Answer 6

According to Christian tradition, Jesus did go to Hell - to free the righteous people who had previously been unable to enter heaven. That is why in Dante's Inferno the gates to hell are permanently open, since Jesus forced them open when freeing the righteous.

This even is known as the Harrowing of Hell. In the Apostle's Creed, it states "He descended into Hell. On the Third Day he rose again".

but righteous people were not in hell? adam? enoc? noah? abraham? they were not in hell. because Christs sacrifice was an infinite and eternal one, times past present and future were, are and would be affected. therefore, if this was true, access to the atonement (sacrifice) was had Milena before it was even performed. in terms of Resurrection, a form of salvation, that key was seized on a time basis. he went to "prison" to teach the gospel to those who would have accepted it had they the opportunity in this life.

Answer 7

True christians who follow Jesus Christ are going to heaven as Jesus went to heaven. Hell is for those who reject the free salvation that was offered by the sacrificial death of Jesus by their life.

Answer 8

No one can judge that. My personal opinion is he probably did. The Bible indicates that Satan entered him. This means to me, he was not in control of his act. After the task was completed, Satan - I would think - then left his body. When he came to his mind, and realized what he did, he committed suicide. He was that distraught. Now, lets say you lost control of your mind; You blacked out. You then came to normal. Would you expect to be held accountable for your actions as bad as they may have been? You were not in control and neither was he. Jesus knew He had to be crucified. I believe Jesus forgave Judas, but this is just a personal opinion.

Jesus DID forgive Judas. He forgives any sin commited no matter what it is or what extent. This does not mean that Judas went to heaven though.

Jesus chose Judas not the other way round. Jesus hastened Judas along to get it done. "What you are doing,do more quickly" John 13:27

Like the guy up above said Satan entered him. Why did Jesus tell him to do it more quickly. The Jesus i know would have stopped him,but somebody had to be the fall guy,and be born to do this. I to believe that Jesus forgave him,and that`s my personal opinion has well.

Answer 9

No, he was a good person so he only went to heaven.

See Ephesians 4:9-10 In saying He ascended, what does it mean but tha He also descended into the lower regions,the earth. He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens that He might fill all things.

Answer 10

According to Christian belief, Jesus descended into hell after his crucifixion in order to free the souls of the righteous who had died before his resurrection. This aspect of the belief is outlined in the Apostles' Creed, which states that Jesus "descended into hell."
