The Harrowing of Hell is an event defined in early Christian doctrine, which states that between his death on Good Friday and his triumphant resurrection at Easter, Christ descended to Hell to claim the souls languishing in Satan\u27s thralldom by dint of Original Sin, having ransomed them by his passion and death.
