  Correct answer: №2
  Correct!
  Comment:

  For the correct answer to this question, the following aspects should be taken into consideration; firstly, the descent of the body is out of the question, since Christ's body was in the tomb on the day of the Great Sabbath. Secondly, the option "as the Deity" is excluded, because God is omnipresent (omnipresent, immeasurable, limitless). As God, Christ is present everywhere, including hell; He was present there even before His death on the Cross. Deity and mankind are united in Christ inseparably, unchangeably, inseparably and indivisibly; this too must not be forgotten. Thus, the option of "human soul" remains, which is confirmed by the well-known troparion: "In the grave carnally, but in hell with the soul as God.."..

  Psalm 138:8 If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. (Ps.138:8)

  1 Corinthians 15:3-4 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, (1Cor.15:3) and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures, (1Cor.15:4)
