Did Jesus Go Preach in Hell?

What happened between Good Friday and Easter Sunday?

Christians around the world pause each year to remember the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We commemorate His crucifixion on Good Friday and celebrate His resurrection on Easter Sunday—but what does the Bible say about the time in between?

In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard examines key passages such as Acts 2:27 and 1 Peter 3:19, which are often interpreted to mean that Jesus descended into Hell and preached to imprisoned spirits. Did Christ actually go to Hell? Was He preaching to the lost? Or are these verses commonly misunderstood?

With careful attention to Scripture, Dr. Bernard offers a clear and biblically grounded explanation of what Jesus was doing between His death and resurrection. This episode helps listeners separate tradition from biblical teaching while deepening their understanding of Christ’s finished work.

As Easter approaches, this timely discussion will strengthen your confidence in the gospel message and provide clarity on one of the most frequently asked questions about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
