What does the Bible say about Christ's authority over death and hell?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that Christ holds the keys of hell and death, signifying his supreme authority over both realms (Revelation 1:18).

The Bible clearly affirms the authority of Christ over death and hell, particularly in Revelation 1:18, where Jesus proclaims, 'I am he that liveth and was dead; and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.' This passage emphasizes that Christ holds dominion over both death and hell, showcasing his victory over these formidable adversaries. In His sovereign rule, Christ not only confronts the fear that death instills but also has the power to rescue His people from the torments of hell. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus has defeated these enemies on behalf of human beings, proving His authority to deliver and save.
