In the Middle Ages theologians came up with the theological construct of limbo

Yes, some theologians did and those theologians were wrong.

Neither Christ nor the apostles taught the concept of limbo and the early church didn't believe it.

Rome pretends.

Discernment.

"Neither Christ nor the apostles taught the concept of limbo and the early church didn't believe it."

What do you then call the state that in which the souls of the Patriarchs were held, the Bosom of Abraham, while awaiting Christ's opening gates of Heaven?
