It has never been revealed that any particular soul is in hell. Christ said of Judas, “Better for him had he never been born.” That does not look too hopeful in his case, for no matter what a man has to endure, if he attains eternal happiness in the end, much better to have been born. However, even of Judas, no man has absolute certainty. The question can be solved only by God. It is practically certain that Adam is in heaven, and not in hell. Thus Scripture says, “Wisdom preserved him that was first formed by God, the father of the world . . . and brought him out of his sin.” Wisd. X, 2. Adam was the type of the second Adam, Christ, and it is to be expected that Christ, the second Adam, would see to it that the first Adam was fully liberated from Satan. The Greek Church, from very ancient times, has celebrated the feast of Adam and Eve.
