What Is Good Friday And Why We Celebrate?

Jesus Go In Heaven.

The question that you raise has often been discussed and is part of a wider question about where Jesus was between his death on Good Friday and his glorious resurrection on Easter morning.

In that regard, I think that it is important to take seriously the last words of Jesus before he died: “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit,” (Luke 23:46).

Death is the separation of the soul or spirit from the body and, at the point of his death, the spirit of Jesus was in the hands of the Father. We know that the Father is in heaven. The same was true for the thief, according to the promise of Jesus.

On Easter morning, when Christ rose, his spirit was clothed in a new resurrection body. His Spirit came back from heaven. His body was raised.

What happened on that morning is a model or a picture of what will happen to believers whose souls or spirits are now with the Father in heaven. When Christ returns, they will come from heaven with him, and they will receive the resurrection body, which will be patterned after his resurrection body (1 Thessalonians 4:14-16).

The Bible doesn’t provide exact birth or death dates for Jesus. Luke 3:23 indicates that Jesus was about 30 years old when he began His earthly ministry, which lasted for three to three-and-a-half years.

So, among scholars, the most common estimate is that Jesus was 33 to 34 years old at the time of His death. However, some have estimated that He was as old as 39.
