    Descent Into Hell

    About this ebook

    It is one of the great biblical mysteries. The three days Yeshua of Nazareth spent in the tomb are unaccounted for. What happened during those days? The Apostles' Creed says that He descended into hell. What happened there?

    This novel envisions an incredible journey that Christ might have experienced, from the crucifixion atop Golgotha, to his burial, to the Garden of Eden Paradise, and, ultimately, into the bowels of the sinister underworld. Joined by choirs of angels and the Good Thief, Dismas, Yeshua encounters resistant and combative satanic forces jealously defending their dark prison of souls of the sleeping righteous biblical figures.

    Accompany Christ on his divine rescue mission, and be part of this creative and imaginative take on this glorious mystery.

    "This was a great read. Not just a lot of skill went into this, but a lot of prayer. It is very moving in many parts and, most importantly, it lifts us beyond our earth-bound selves to see a greater reality." Father Rod McNeil

    "That was such a beautiful, emotional and thought-provoking read. I did need to stop, on occasion, and wipe the tears from my eyes. You made the crucifixion come to life for me." C Murdock.

    "I foolishly picked this up late in the evening, and spent the next several hours enthralled!" B. Nagle
