    Also, when it was said that the Spirit had not yet been given I think it's obvious that the statement was in reference to the institution of the church which happened on the Day of Pentecost.

    OT saints did not have the seal of the Holy Spirit as do the New Testament believers. OT saints prior the Christ's death, resurrection and ascension, when they died would go to the upper compartment of the nether world. New Testament believers go to be directly with Christ, where the OT saints are now.
