re: #506 Walter L. Newton
Jesus was in “hades,” “hell” and came back and made that statement. At least according to the Greek scriptures. Where was he, hell or heaven?
Good question!
Both - because why would he tell the one robber on the cross that he’d be with Him in paradise that same day?
But it is an interesting point, on which one can speculate for all its worth. Fact is - we don’t know. question then is; does not knowing this matter?
