what descent from hell's mean      The phrase "he descended into hell" (or to the dead) is a line from the Apostles' Creed, a historic statement of Christian faith. It signifies that after Jesus died, his soul truly went to the realm of the dead before his resurrection.Its exact meaning depends on how different Christian traditions interpret the theology:Conquering Death & The Harrowing of Hell: Many traditions view this as a victorious descent. Christ went to the realm of the dead (often referred to as Sheol or Hades) as a Savior to announce his victory and free the righteous souls (like the Old Testament prophets) who had been waiting there for redemption.The State of Being Dead: Some reform traditions interpret the phrase as a poetic way of saying Jesus fully experienced the reality of human death, his body lay in the grave, and he remained in the state of death until the third day.Suffering the Wrath of God: Another interpretation is that the "descent into hell" describes the intense spiritual torment and separation from God that Jesus suffered on the cross to bear the penalty of human sins.If you are exploring Christian theology and would like to dive deeper, I can provide information on:The scriptural references (like 1 Peter 3) often debated in relation to thisThe historical background of the Apostles' CreedWould you like to explore one of these areas?Reformed Theological Seminary·Reformed Theological Seminary3:54What does it mean that Jesus "descended into Hell"?catholicvirginian.orgWhat 'descended into hell' means in the Apostles' CreedFeb 8, 2021 — But in 2007, with the approval of Pope Benedict XVI, the Church's International Theological Commission concluded that “there are theological and liturgical reas...Phoenix SeminaryHe Descended into Hell, or Did He? | Jesus’s Descent and Why It ...Aug 9, 2021 — So when the early Christian writers said, “He descended to hell,” or “He descended to the dead,” that's what they meant.
