Did Jesus go to Hell?
-

By:
What happened to Jesus on Easter Saturday? The apostles creed claims that Jesus 'descended into hell', reflecting a wider Christian motif called the 'Harrowing of Hell.' To find out more about this belief, Lloyd Lewellyn-Jones asks our resident expert, Helen Bond, who is currently writing a book on the subject.
They explore questions like:
- Is the 'Harrowing of Hell' alluded to in the gospels?
- When did Jesus go to hell and what was he doing there?
- How strong is the biblical foundation of this idea?
- How is the Harrowing depicted in the Gospel of Nicodemus?
