Fall asleep to the calm, in-depth story of the Harrowing of Hell.

Most Christians have said the words in the Apostles' Creed: "He descended into hell." Almost nobody can explain what that actually means - or what the ancient church believed happened in the dark between Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

📖 IN THIS EPISODE

In this documentary-style exploration, we cover:

• What the Harrowing of Hell actually is - and why most Christians have never been taught it

• The ancient underworld (Sheol) and what the dead were believed to experience there

• What happened the moment Jesus died - and what came next in the darkness

• Adam, Eve, David, Moses, and the generations of waiting dead who recognized his arrival

• How the gates of the underworld were broken from the inside - and what that meant for the dead

The line has been in the Apostles' Creed for nearly two thousand years. Tonight, we finally read the footnotes.

Perfect for falling asleep, relaxation, study, or anyone curious about biblical theology and the Easter story.
