It does make sense if you realise that limbo essentially is theologically used to mean “I don’t know”, hence “A. Christ descended into Limbo to preach to the souls who were in prison — that is, to announce to them the joyful tidings of their redemption. “ refers to the place where people like the OT prophets etc. were in before Christ opened the gates of heaven. Do you follow that?

The first limbus patrum IS doctrine seen as the temporary state of those who, in spite of the personal sins they may have committed, died in the friendship of God, but could not enter Heaven until redemption by Jesus Christ made it possible. That should be clear,right?
