Roman Catechism 7.4

Chapter 7 — Part I: The Creed — Article V: He Descended into Hell; the Third Day He Rose Again from the Dead

Section 4. "Hell" — As the pastor, by explaining the meaning of the word hell in this place may throw considerable light on the exposition of this Article, it is to be observed that by the word hell is not here meant the sepulchre, as some have not less impiously than ignorantly imagined; for in the preceding Article we learned that Christ the Lord was buried, and there was no reason why the Apostles, in delivering an Article of faith, should repeat the same thing in other and more obscure terms.
