Under the tag "graf" you shall be able to find articles on any excavation made in the earth in which a dead body can be buried. Any place that becomes the receptacle of what is dead, lost, or past, the last place of interment; a tomb or sepulchre.
It is about a place for the burial of a corpse, which can be beneath the ground but also above the earth in a special build construction, a cavity in a mensa, a vault or mausoleum and usually marked by a tombstone.

The sepulchre is first mentioned in the Bible as the burialplace or grave purchased by Abraham for Sarah from Ephron the Hittite (Genesis 23:20). This was the "cave of the field of Machpelah," where also Abraham and Rebekah and Jacob and Leah were burried (79:29-32). That place was considered as the unseen world: Hades and Sheool, were since the first sin entered the wold also death came by it and therefore every element of creation had to face death and decay without any difference between plant, animal or human. (Ecclesiastes 3:19,20) All had to go to that one place, the grave, to become dust again. (Genesis 3:19; Ecclesiastes 12:7) In Acts 7:16 it is said that Jacob was "laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem." Moses, Elisha, King David were placed in a sepulchre. Kings (1 Kings 2:10) and prophets (1 Samuel 25:1) were generally buried within cities. Graves were generally grottoes or caves, natural or hewn out in rocks (Isaia 22:16; Matthew 27:60). There were family cemeteries (Genesis 47:29; 50:5; 2 Samuel 19:37). Public burial-places like gehenna outside Jerusalem, were assigned to the poor (Jeremia 26:23; 2 Kings 23:6). Graves were usually closed with stones, which were whitewashed, to warn strangers against contact with them (Matthew 23:27), which caused ceremonial pollution (Numeri 19:16). There were no graves in Jerusalem except those of the kings, and according to tradition that of the prophetess Huldah.
Joseph of Arimathea provided his own newly made sepulchre for use of Jesus from Nazareth (Matthew 27:57-60) who also went into the hel of death.


Onder het etiket "graf" zal u artikelen vinden welke betrekking hebben op de rustplaats van afgestorvenen. Het graf kan daar gaan om een kuil in de aarde, een opgraving gemaakte in de aarde waarin een lijk kan begraven worden. Maar ook over enige andere plaats waar datgene dat dood is, het leven verloren heeft tot rust wordt gebracht of als laatste plaats krijgt van een ter aarde bestelling of begrafenis; een graf of sepulcrum, grafkelder, grafspelonk, graftombe. Het is over een plaats voor de begrafenis van een lijk, dat onder het terrein kan zijn maar ook boven de aarde in een speciale opbouw, een holte in een mensa, een gewelf, stenen grafmonument,  graftempel of mauseleum en gewoonlijk gemarkeerd door een grafsteen. Een grafspelonk daarentegen is de rotsen uitgehouwen uitgehouwen grot, waarin het lijk kan geplaatst worden.



Het sepulcrum wordt eerst in de Bijbel als de begraafplaats of graf vermeld dat door Abraham voor Sarah van Ephron de Hettiet werd gekocht  (Genesis 23:20). Dit was het "hol van het veld van Machpelah", waar ook Abraham en Rebekah en Jacob en Leah werden begraven (79:29-32). Die plaats werd als de ongeziene wereld beschouwd: Hades en Sheool. Deze plaatsen waren, aangezien door de eerste zondeval in de wereld ook de dood tot iedereen gekomen was, voor eenieder onderdeel van de schepping de tegemoet teziene laatste rustplaats. In de dood zou voor iedereen en alles verval optreden, zonder verschil tussen plant, dier of mens. (Prediker 3:19.20) Iedereen moest naar die plaats, het graf, gaan om opnieuw stof  te worden. (Gensis 3:19; Prediker 12:7) In Handelingen van de Apostelen 7:16 wordt gezegd dat Jacob "in het sepulcrum werd gelegd dat Abraham van de zonen van Emmor de vader van Sychem voor een som geld had gekocht". Mozes, Elisha, Koning David werden in een sepulcrum geplaatst. Koningen (1 Koningen 2:10) en profeten (1 Samuel 25:1) werden algemeen binnen steden begraven. Graven waren algemeen grotten of holen, natuurlijke of uit rotsen gehouwde holten (Jesaja 22:16; Mattheus 27:60). Er waren familiebegraafplaatsen (Genesis 47:29; 50:5; 2 Samuel 19:37). Openbare begraaf-plaatsten zoals Gehenna buiten Jeruzalem, werden aan de armen toegewezen (Jeremia 26:23; 2 Koningen 23:6). Graven werden gewoonlijk met stenen afgesloten, welke werden witgewassen, om vreemden te waarschuwen tegen contact met hen (Mattheus23:27), welk ceremoniële vervuiling veroorzaakte (Numerieken 19:16) . Er waren geen graven in Jeruzalem behalve die van de koningen en volgens traditie die van de profetes Huldah. Joseph van Arimathea verzorgde zijn eigen pas gemaakt sepulcrum voor gebruik voor Jezus van Nazareth (Matthew 27:57-60) die ook door zijn dood in "de hel" ging.

Join the debate about the position of fallen angels

On Facebook you can find a discussion to which we would like to invite you to debate about the matter of hell, fallen angels and the position of sinners after their death.
> http://www.facebook.com/marcus.ampe?v=wall&story_fbid=126675704046786
Jesus who was Wounded for our transgressions and died for all sinners was directed by humans to go into hell. The day Jesus died his soul was delivered in the hands of God, though an innocent man, who did not do any sin, he was placed in hell. What did the Holy man do when he was considerd by many the Messiah Jesus three days in hell? Did he not succeed to save the people who were supposed to be there to be tortured for their sins? Was his dying on the stake to pay for all sins of humankind a measure for nothing? Because when Jesus as the Lamb of God sprinkled his blood on this world for forgiveness of all sins, it looks like God not accepting this offer when He ask the sinners first to go to purgatory or to send them to hell even before Jesus can judge them at the end times, when the Messiah would return to judge the living and the death.

You are welcome to join the debate on Facebook on the reaction about Does God Exist?
"A true story..." plus Einsteins saying concerning our own responsability about evil.

Ook Nederlandstalige lezers worden vriendelijk uitgenodigd om mee in het debat te treden op Facebook en verder in te gaan op de bovenvermelde artikelen en over wat de Bijbel zegt over engelen, duivels, demonen, vagevuur, hel en over wat Jezus hier op aarde kwam doen en nog later bij zijn terugkomst zal doen.

Jesus three days in hell

"When Jesus Christ died at the cross, he was the definite and complete sacrifice for our sins.” tells evangelist Billy Graham.  According to him Jesus “was without sin and had never committed a sin, not even one. But to the cross came sin of whole humanity on him and Christ took the decision to take the sentence which we deserve on himself. He took our place! We can hardly present ourselves this, but when he died God His own Son even went on our behalf to hell. For this reason he shouted to the cross: ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’ (Marcus 15:34). This is what the old credo ‘he has descended in hell (this sense stands in an old declaration which is read weekly in some churches) means.”
At its baptism Jesus received the Holy Spirit and started his worldly task get people to repentance. He was prepared to take up all the sins of all people and to sacrifice his life for them. By dying to the torture post he brought a ransom sacrifice to God for whole humanity. That Jesus would have gone for three days to hell, as a place of torture,  will be a found in the wrong interpretation of the word sheol or `underworld’ where the sepulchre is simply meant (i.e. the grave). Also when we die we will arrive in the ground or the sepulchre. We shall end up in the grave or sheol, the hell, being not a place of torture, but just of earth and dust.
