OUR LORD'S DESCENT INTO HELL. When our Lord died on Good Friday. His Soul was separated from His Body, but we ought not to think either His Body or His Soul could be separated from His D1vinity. His human Body in the sepulchre was the Body of God the Son, and His human Soul in Hades was the Soul of God the Son. While His Body lay in the sepulchre His Soul descended into the place of departed spirits, in which as in a prison the righteous of the old dispensation were detained (I St. Peter III, 18-20). Satan had no power to hurt these faithful one but he could detain them until our Lord had died to set them free. They were "prisoners of hope" (Zech. IX, 12), and waited peacefully in Abraham's bosom till their Deliverer should come. The Soul of our Lord united inseparably to His Divinity, went not into hell as a prisoner but as Satan's conqueror. He delivered the faithful from the prison and gave them the Beatific Vision which He carried with Him. Thus was Abraham's bosom changed to Paradise for Paradise is where the Vision of God is beheld by the faithful, and our Lord's word to the penitent thief, "To-day shalt thou be with me in Paradise" was fulfilled. chapter{Section 4 Chapter XIV.
