My LORD’s BibleGospel of Nicodemus, Part II: The Descent into Hell
Pseudonymously attributed to Nicodemus as a later addition to Part I, likely by a different unknown author, probably composed in the 5th-6th century AD. Narrates Christ's descent into Hades between his death and resurrection, freeing the righteous dead -- the fullest early account of the 'harrowing of hell.'
