Excerpt from Here and Here After
The Bible reveals comparatively little, in detail, concerning; the future life. It does declare plainly and emphatically that "man dieth to live again," but gives no specific detail of what is meant by "living again," or of what shall be the special conditions, employments and pleasures of the life that succeeds this. Mention is made therein of heaven and of hades; of "the Holy City, New Jerusalem," with gates of pearl and streets of gold, and of a "bottomless pit" and "outer darkness;" of the blessedness of the saved and the wailings of "the lost;" but all this is spoken in general terms, figurative in their use, and not in plain, specific language.
