According to Dante’s Inferno 9 Circles of Hell, Dante, along with Virgil, arrives at Limbo, at the first circle of Hell, where Virgil himself resides. They had to cross the river Atcher on a boat to reach the first circle of the abyss, Limbo. However, the first circle contains people who did not accept Christ. Limbo is filled with unbaptized virtuous pagans and people. When Dante asks if anyone had ever left Limbo, Virgil states that he saw Jesus descend into Limbo. Moreover he had seen taking Adam, David, Abel, Moses, Noah, Abraham, and Rachel into his all-forgiving arms. Thus, he transported them to Heaven. According to Dante’s Inferno 9 Circles of Hell, public figures like Aristotle, Julius Caesar, Hippocrates, Cicero, and Socrates reside here. Although people are not tortured, there is the presence of gloominess and sadness. People’s souls in Limbo are unhappy. Although Heaven is near, they won’t be able to enter.
