Chapter 8: Descent

In the realm of the departed, Jesus' presence resonated much like it had during his earthly sojourn.

Those who had doubted him found their doubts mirrored in the dimness of the afterlife, their existence an echo of true life. His descent into the depths fulfilled a promise he had once declared in a humble church service—to free the captives. For three days, the tableau of resurrection bore an unconventional form, hidden under the appearance of decaying flesh and a scattered heap of bones. Yet, beneath the surface, a profound transformation was underway—a liberation unfurling in the unseen depths, where the shackles of doubt and death were gradually giving way to the emergence of newfound freedom.
