Story Of The Afterlife - Sheol/Hades, Paradise, Hell - Where Do We Go When We Die?

According to 1 Peter 3:18-20 and Ephesians 4:9-10, Jesus descended to Sheol/Hades after His crucifixion to preach to disobedient spirits from Noah's time and redeem those who belonged to Him, bringing them to paradise; this descent explains why believers go to paradise upon death while others await final judgment in Sheol, with the law distinguishing between those who died before and after its establishment.
