It is just a reference of time between bodily death and bodily resurrection. Until you get this understanding, you are going to misconstrue a lot. Stick with my points.
Hello & Blessings.

Again, let's discuss this.
Please explain to me "where is your Scriptural evidence" for this dogma? Why does a soul have to go to this place? What happens in this place? If this "place" is so important, why didn't Jesus teach about this place? Why didn't any of the apostles teach about this?
