==Eph 4:8 (B) What does Paul mean here that Christ "led captivity captive" when He ascended on high?==

Again there are divided opinions among bible scholars as to the exact meaning of what Paul says here (CP also Psa 68:18). 

Some believe Eph 4:8 refers to Christ when He descended into hell, releasing all the righteous dead who had been held captive by Satan, and taking them up to heaven with Him when He ascended on high (CP V8-10 and Mt 12:38-40 with Col 2:13-15 and He 2:14-15). 

Others believe that it refers to Christ's triumphant victory procession to heaven leading vanquished demons behind Him. 

Once again it is not relevant which teaching is correct - they too are not fundamental to salvation, so whichever one we disagree with, let us do so in love also.
