Your explaination explains nothing. Jesus said to the thief on the cross, "To day shalt thou be with me in paradise." Jesus' soul was not left in Hades, Acts of the Apostles 2:31-37. Jesus lead those said to be in captivity at His ascension, Ephesians 4:8. Jesus entered Heaven once and for all to be mediator until is second appearing, Hebrews 9:12, Hebrews 9:24, Hebrews 9:28. The Apostle Paul identified Paradise to be in the third heaven, 2 Corinthians 12:2-3.
Where was Jesus for 3 days?

Only GOD (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) can freely move between the spirit world & ours. -
16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
17 And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the Lord, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha. -

You (who have zilch, zero, nada) knowledge of either Greek nor Hebrew have failed to understand the meaning of either term.
Granted the KJV does poorly translate here.....but you wouldn't know why.
"Hades" is not divided into places of torments and a paradise....
That idea is stupid and unbiblical.
You have conjured that idea out of concession to weird pagan philosophies not found in Scripture, You assumed it was probably true because you thought you could attack the KJV with it (you can't really as most English translations can't rightly translate it).
Thus, you begin proclaiming with zilch knowledge of any Biblical language how a word should be translated.
Here's what you don't know:
There IS no good equivalent English wore for either term. No English Bible could get it correct if they used any English word.
English didn't suffer from the same assumptions of the fate of the dead that either the Hebrews or Greeks had.
Only someone with no knowledge would seek for a perfect or good English translation.
You do not now, nor ever have had a clue what you are talking about. -

What the sack of potatoes is the "spirit world"?
What does "another dimension" mean?
I know what it means, it means...…"something you can't question be about because it's another 'dimension' ")
How often do you invent such spurious ideas when you have no answer? -
In Jesus' parable of the rich man & the beggar Lazarus, He plainly showed the two areas of hades, even mentioning there's a great gulf between them. You must believe Jesus' parable is based upon some make-believe world He invented.
Several times, Scripture mentions God didn't leave Jesus' spirit in hades. with Acts 2:27 being an example, plus we have Jesus telling the repentant thief in the cross that on that day he wouls be with Jesus in PARADISE. So, definitely, paradise is part of hades.
Loox as if YOU don't know what you're talking about, as you can't use any Scripture to support your blather. Thus, you make stupid & baseless accusations. -

And, in Jesus' parable, the rich man was in 'torments' in hades.That's the word Jesus used. (Mistranslated 'hell' in the KJV & a few other versions) And Acts 2:27, speaking of Jesus says God would not leave His soul in hades. There you are; the 2 areas of hades !

The question seemstabee "Where was Jesus for 3 days after he died?" He Himself said He'd be in PARADISE.Acts 2:27 says God would not leave His spirit in hades. Therefore, paradise is in hades. There should be no doubting this, as it's in Scripture, & Scripture is aleays right.

Luke 23:43 And he said to him, “Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in paradise.” -
