THE NEW TRANSLATION –
HE DESCENDED INTO HELL
In
the
Apostles’
Creed,
where
we
previously
said,
“He
descended
to
the
dead,”
we
will
now
use
the
more
accurate
translation
“He
descended
into
hell.”
Based
on
the
apostolic
preaching,
especially
St.
Paul,
the
first
meaning
of
this
expression
is
that
Jesus
truly
experienced
human
death.
His
soul,
separated
from
His
body
but
united
to
His
divinity,
joined
those
who
had
gone
before
into
the
depths
(e.g.,
Ephesians
4:9‐10).
So,
why
talk
about
hell?
Well,
Scripture
calls
the
abode
of
the
dead
"hell"
–
Sheol
in
Hebrew
or
Hades
in
Greek
–
because
the
souls
there
are
deprived
of
the
vision
of
God.
Such
was
the
case
for
all
the
dead
who
came
before
Christ,
which
does
not
mean
that
the
lot
of
the
evildoers
is
identical
to
that
of
the
righteous,
as
our
Lord
shows
through
the
parable
of
the
poor
man
Lazarus
who
was
received
into
“Abraham's
bosom”
(Luke
16:22‐26).
Jesus
descended
into
“hell”
not
to
destroy
the
hell
of
damnation,
but
to
free
the
just
who
had
gone
before
Him
and
could
not
go
to
heaven
until
the
Saviour’s
death
and
resurrection.
Jesus
went
to
rescue
the
holy
souls
from
the
beginning
of
human
history
who
were
awaiting
their
Redeemer
in
Abraham's
bosom.
This
is
the
meaning
of
St.
Peter’s
statement
that
"the
gospel
was
preached
even
to
the
dead"
–
the
Savior
descended
to
proclaim
liberty
to
the
captive
spirits
who
were
imprisoned
in
hell
(1
Peter
3:18‐19
and
4:6).
The
descent
into
hell
is
the
last
phase
of
Jesus’
messianic
mission,
condensed
in
time
but
vast
in
its
significance:
the
spread
of
Christ's
redemptive
work
to
men
of
all
times
and
all
places.
Some
Fathers
of
the
Church
speculate
that
the
devil
mistook
Jesus
for
easy
prey,
because
the
evil
one
saw
only
Christ’s
human
soul
laden
with
the
sins
of
the
world,
but
did
not
see
the
second
person
of
the
Most
Blessed
Trinity.
In
this
way,
God
breached
the
gates
of
hell
and
destroyed
Satan’s
hold
over
mankind.
Through
His
death
for
us,
our
Lord
conquered
sin,
death,
and
the
devil
"who
has
the
power
of
death"
(Hebrews
2:14).
In
sum,
the
dead
Christ’s
human
soul
united
to
His
divine
person
went
down
to
the
realm
of
the
dead.
He
opened
heaven's
gates
for
the
just
who
had
gone
before
him,
and
vanquished
the
enemy
of
our
human
nature.
Thus,
this
brief
matter‐of‐fact
statement
holds
the
promise
of
immense
hope
for
believers.
We’ll
discuss
this,
and
much
more
in
Part
2
of
our
parish
presentation
on
the
New
Missal,
from
7
p.m.
to
8:30
p.m.
next
Sunday,
October
30.
Please
feel
free
to
attend
even
if
you
missed
the
first
session!
