Makary (Nevsky), Metropolitan of Moscow and Kolomna ¶ “ 30And the man replied, 'No, father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent!' 31Abraham said to him, 'If they won't hear Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone rises from the dead' ” (Luke 16:19-31).įrom that story, and other scriptures, a traditional diagram is drawn, a simplified version of which is shown below.St. I want Lazarus to warn them, so they won't come into this place of torment.' 29But Abraham said, 'They have Moses and the Prophets let them hear them.' ¶ “ 27And the man in torment said, 'Then I beg you, father Abraham, to send Lazarus to my father’s house. Those who would pass from here to you cannot, and none may cross from over there to us.' 26Besides all that, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed. But now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish. Lazarus at the same time received bad things. ¶ “ 25But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things. 24And the rich man cried out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me! Please send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. He lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his embrace. 23In Hades the man who had been rich suffered torment. ¶ “ 22The poor man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. Added to that, the dogs came and licked the poor man’s sores. 21Lazarus was longing to be fed with the mess from under the rich man’s table. 20Meanwhile at his gate there was laid a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores. ¶ “ 19There was a rich man dressed in costly purple cloth and fine linen. This raises speculation about how literal a picture Jesus intended to give us in the setting he provided for the story. However (and it's a pretty significant however) our Lord pictures people in Hades as having bodies, when in fact the dead have lost their natural bodies, and do not yet have their immortal bodies. ![]() ![]() Some think that we can learn what Hades is like from the descriptions in this story. The story of the rich man and Lazarus takes place in Hades (Luke 16:19-31). This suggests that Hades or Sheol is a place unseen or unknown -not a place for us to comprehend. The Greek name `αδες (hades) may come from the prefix a- (meaning not) combined with oida (meaning "see" or "know"). ¶ “ 31 David foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption” (Acts 2:31). You will make me full of joy with your presence” (Acts 2:25-28). 28You have made known to me the paths of life. 27For you will neither abandon my soul to Hades, nor let your Holy One see corruption. 26Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced. ¶ “ 25I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken. At your right hand are pleasures evermore” (Psalm 16:8-11). 10For you will neither abandon my soul to Sheol, nor let your holy one see decay. 9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices. He is at my right hand, so I shall not be moved. ¶ “ 8I have set the LORD always before me. When "the spirit returns to God who gave it" (Ecclesiastes 12:7), where does it reside until the resurrection? In the vision that John saw of the resurrection and judgment, the dead are said to have been in Hades (Revelation 20:11-15). ![]() I'll simply do the best I can to give you a Bible answer. ![]() There's no point me making stuff up to fill in the detail. The question of where the spirit goes is answered by the Bible, but without detail. Yet there is the promise that out of that death will come an immortal, glorified, and incorruptible body at the resurrection.īut what of the spirit? Is it still alive? Where has it gone? 3 The Spirit to God So the dead go to the grave the body undergoes corruption dust returns to dust. 53This mortal must put on immortality” (1Corinthians 15:37-38,50,53). 50flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 38But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body. ¶ “ 37.And the seed you sow is not the body that is to be, but a bare kernel, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain. ![]()
