The article is trash, written by a poorly educated person who places their off the cuff opinion higher than historical academics and verity of His Word. Hades has at least four compartments (Paradise/Abrahams Bosom, Torments, Tatarus, and the Abyss), all described with locative descriptors. Hades isnt figurative, but as real a place as any other in human experience and perception.
I think it's a good explanation of a parable....
