The Arm of The LORD
It was the Justice of God that kept Jesus of Nazareth in the deepest pit of Hell.
The torment of His separation from Father’s love, peace and mercy began at the Cross, Holy Bible, Matthew 27:45-46 KJV;
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
How that cry harrows our hearts, but none more than His Father’s.
It had to be, in order to satisfy divine Justice.
