Dear Brethren,
I hope that i have posted this in the correct sub-forum. I'm looking for any expository or explanatory works addressing the 3rd Article of the 39 Articles of Religion (the text of which states "As Christ died for us, and was buried, so also it is to be believed, that he went down into Hell"). I'm not aware of any scriptural support for such a statement and i haven't been able to locate any commentary upon the 39 Articles which addresses this. Can anyone help me with resources which would either confirm or refute this?
[For context i probably should mention that I'm a reformed Anglican who would seek to lay claim to the Anglican origins of the Westminster confession, and am in agreement with the 39 Articles with the exception of article 3 mentioned above].
Thanks
