THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS / LUKE 16:19-31

(KJV) Luke 16:19-31

The rich man’s life was consumed in self-centered living. He made the wrong choice and suffered eternally (Luke 16:22-23). Lazarus lived all his life in poverty, but his heart was right with God. His name means “God is my help,” and he never gave up his faith in God. He died and was immediately taken to paradise (Luke 16:22; 23:43; Acts 7:59; 2 Corinthians 5:8; Philippians 1:23). Paradise and “Abraham’s side refer to the place of spiritual rest and delight where those who die in a right relationship with God enter His presence and await the resurrection and the fulfillment of all God’s plans (Luke 23:43; 2 Corinthians 12:2, 4, which use “heaven” and “paradis” interchangeably). The word translated “hell” (Greek hades) refers to the place where the wicked dead go to await final judgment. Though hades includes the type of torment described in other passages that refer to hell (Matthew 8:12; Revelation 14:11; Revelation 20:10), it should not be confused with the Greek gehenna (also translated “hell”; Matthew 10:28). Gehenna is the term that actually refers to hell as the place of eternal torment and punishment, originally prepared for the devil and his demonic follower (Matthew 25:41), but also reserved for the ungodly (Mark 9:43; Mark 9:48). The location and proximity of paradise and hades as described in this passage are unclear; it simply points to a permanent separation. Some view Jesus’ description here of the location (not the conditions) of Abraham’s side and hades in a less literal way. The main point is that the destinies of both men were irreversible at death (Luke 16:24-26).
