In the Christian calendar. Following the timeline, this is when Jesus’ followers scattered, believing their master dead. Hiding from the authorities, figuring they just threw months of their life out the window; dejected, they were not going on with life as normal.

But then, neither was God. In the Christian multiverse, we agree that there is reality beyond the five senses. And part of this reality was dealt with today:

Descent+Into+Hell

‘The soul [of Christ] when it is deified descended into Hades, in order that, just as the Sun of Righteousness rose for those upon the earth, so likewise He might bring light to those who sit under the earth in darkness and the shadow of death: in order that just as he brought the message of peace to those upon the earth, and of release to the prisoners, and of sight to the blind, and became to those who believed the Author of everlasting salvation and to those who did not believe, a denunciation of their unbelief, so He might become the same to those in Hades: That every knee should bow to Him, of things in heaven, and things in earth and things under the earth. And thus after He had freed those who has been bound for ages, straightway He rose again from the dead, showing us the way of resurrection.’

John Damascene
