PARADISE AND TORMENT SIDES OF HADES 1) Jesus to be 3 days & nights in heart of the Earth as Jonah was 3 days & nights in the belly of the huge fish (Matthew 12:40). 2) Thief on cross joins Jesus in Paradise that very same day (Luke 23:40-43). 3) Rich man & Lazarus see each other across "great gulf" (Luke 16:19-31). 4) Jesus preaches to spirits in prison (1 Peter 3:18-20). 5) Jesus sets dead saints free & they emerge from graves (Matt. 27:52-53). 6) Jesus now has the keys to death & Hades (Revelation 1:12-18).
