Not wishing to speculate on subject beyond my comprehension, I offer only that "hell" in the Bible seems to be the Hades of the parable of Lazaeas and the rich man, which is to say the abode of the dead. He would then rise from the dead and with him the souls of the Fathers. Unlike them he would be assumed body and soul into heaven on Easter. As to the rest, I suppose that Baltazar is stressing the identity of Jesus with his brother men.
