When Jesus died on the cross, did He go to heaven or hell before He rose again? (The following answer is my opinion from my beliefs, feel free to comment if you disagree or agree.)
The Bible teaches that when He died He took on all of the sins of the world. The Bible also teaches that sin CANNOT be in heaven. Sin leads to eternal death. Eternal death is hell. So if Jesus defeated or overcame death. Well, to me it is only logical that He went to hell to defeat death. Some people say there is no way that Jesus went to hell because He was perfect, He was and is God, He never sinned and hell is for sinners. Good points, but, they totally miss the fact that when He took on our sins He became "as a sinner". That is the ONLY way he could defeat sin.
I believe that in the moment of death he was no longer in the hypostatic union that he was all human and thus died and went to hell and defeated death and came back as God . Cause he is God and he can do that
