Chapter 21: Jesus arrives in Death (Hades).

While Satan and Death were still taking to each other, a load voice, loader than thunder, said “You who are ruling, you must open your gates! Eternal gates, you must be opened, and the Great King will enter!” When Dearth heard this, he told Satan to go and resit him if he can. Satan then left. Death then told the devils working for him to go out and close the copper gates and iron rods and make sure that it is securely fixed and fasten. Make sure my locks are kept locked! Stand up and keep an eye on everything. If he comes in, a terrible fate will hit us! When the people in Death heard what Death said, they started teasing him by saying open the gates that the Great King may enter. Both King David and Isaiah said that they prophesied that this is going to happen as was captured in Psalm 24:7; Isaiah 26:19 and 1 Corinthians 15:55.

The voice called again” Open the gates!!” But Death this time makes if he does not know who the voice was by asking who the Great King was. The angels of the Lord answered “this is the Lord who is strong and mighty, the Lord who wins all the wars” When they said that, the copper gates were broken into pieces and the iron rods mangled together and the chains of the dead who was tighten up loosen and the Great King entered. All the dark places in Dearth were lighted up.
