“Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”

Here Paul includes the unseen parts of this Realm with the seen earthly things, and in the doing, he brings in the ‘spirits’/fallen angels (principalities and powers) who rule on and over the Earth from the first heaven, as well as in the locale of “Death” in the underworld of Hades (Hades being the abode of the dead in the Greek). So it is, that Jesus the Christ’s/Son of God’s incarnation work of Atonement included 1) on the Earth 2) in the center of the Earth 3) in the unseen heaven surrounding the Earth, and 4) in the Heaven of heavens.

On the Earth, on the Cross, Christ put away the ordinances/decrees of God’s Law in regard to the Curse of death resulting from Adam’s sin and the Law of Moses, in that Jesus the Christ was “…made a curse for us: (He willingly gave up life on the Earth under the Curse; “forsaken” by God - Psalm 22:1) …for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree…” And after dying on the Cross, Jesus the Son of Man’s ‘internal spirit’ went back to God as all men’s do at dying; albeit Jesus' spirit was remarkable, having never been tainted by spiritual death. Then, His fleshly body went to the grave, and He as Man created as a ‘living soul’ (see Genesis 2:7, as opposed to being a spirit being) and was taken to Sheol/Hades; the intermediate place of the dead, in the middle of the Earth (as every dead soul has since Adam’s sin). See Ecclesiastes 12:7… “Then shall the dust (body) return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.” See also Luke 23:46… “And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.” Jesus was under the Law of Moses being a circumcised Jew of the seed of Abraham. And being hung on a tree, He was Cursed by the Law of Moses as a condemned soul. Having died on the Cross, He was immediately ‘under arrest’ and brought into the place/locale of Death in Sheol/Hades by the ‘angels/spirits of Death/death’; they being the executioners of the Law upon its condemned. (Luke 16:22, Psalm 16:10) In type, it is Jonah in the belly of the Whale/belly of the Earth for three days and three nights.

SATAN RULES FROM THE HEAVEN OF THIS EARTH AND HAD THE KEYS AND FULL POWER OF THE PLACE CALLED DEATH AND THOSE SPIRIT BEINGS THERE WERE/ARE HIS TRUSTEES/TORMENTORS… They got their power over men from the ordinances of the Law.

Jesus was held as captive, and was afflicted and taunted in the lower parts of Hades; “Death”. (Matthew 12:40; 18:34, Jonah 2, Romans 10:7, Psalm 69) “…being put to death in the flesh (body as a man), but (in the God-determined moment… He was) quickened (made alive - filled with life and life-giving power from the state of death that He was in without His spirit) by the S spirit” (pneuma). (1st Peter 3:18) Which is to say, His now glorified/glory-filled spirit was sent back to Him by the Father into that place of “Death”… in the power of God, ordained “before the foundation of this (present) World… according to the working of his mighty power”. (1st Peter 1:20) In that moment and in that Place, He suddenly was no longer just a soul/man of the flesh cursed with death, but became the life-giving spiritual being. (1st Corinthians 15:45-46) All satan’s ‘spirits/angels’ in authority there in ‘Death’s locale now with all their force resisted His departure. It is then that He exerted His great conquering spiritual power as the victorious Second Adam. “And Having spoiled (in the Greek, spoiled is better understood to mean violently disarmed and stripped the) principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly (there in the place of “Death”, disgracing them by ‘leading captivity captive’ (making a show of them) throughout Sheol/Hades. That great procession being viewed by all the hordes and hosts of the Underworld. Up and out of the Bottomless Pit they came, into the upper regions of Hades, across the Great Abyss, and now in full view and the ever-increasing sound of loud cheers of those rejoicing in Abraham’s Bosom/Garden), triumphing over them in it.” (See Judges 5:12, Psalms 68:18, with Ephesians 4:8 where leading captivity captive speaks of parading prisoners of war around in triumph.)

Jesus, the Second Adam, yet in Hades, without His awaiting, uncorrupted body, having been dead is now “made alive in (His) spirit” in the power of God.
