Hi there.How do we interpret Yeshua's parable of "The Rich Man and Lazarus" (Luke 16:19-31), where he explicitly says that there is a "great chasm" between the living in the dead, which neither side can cross? From Young's Translation: 25 And Abraham said, Child, remember that thou did receive -- thou -- thy good things in thy life, and Lazarus in like manner the evil things, and now he is comforted, and thou art distressed; 26 and besides all these things, between us and you a great chasm is fixed, so that they who are willing to go over from hence unto you are not able, nor do they from thence to us pass through.
