What does the Old Testament say about heaven?

Answer by  oldmom (716)

There isn't much reference in the Old Testament about heaven other than defining it as where God lives. It is seen as where God and the angels, etc. are to be found, but there doesn't seem to be a concept of it in the Old Testament as a place where you might find yourself after death.
