The deep, deep love of the Father would not leave the body of His Son Jesus in the grave. The deep, deep love of the Father is deeper than any grave ever dug, deeper than all the dug graves of history put together. The deep, deep love of the Father and the Son took the shape of a human body on a cross that was wide enough to hold the entire Body of Christ, long enough to hold the centuries and the ages, high  enough to reach into heaven but still planted, like the deep, deep love of the Father,  sinking deeply enough into the earth to bear the weight of all the sin ever committed from the beginning of time, and reaching like a rescue ladder into the bowels of hideous hell itself.
