Apocalypse of Peter 9

Vision of Hell

And at the moment when I looked at Him, He manifested Himself as someone glorified. And He said to me:

2'Courage! In truth, you are the one to whom it has been given to know, without veils, these mysteries.'

3'For He who was crucified is the Firstborn, the house of demons, and the envelope of stone in which He dwells.'

4'Instead, He who is next to Him is the Savior in life: the first, in him, is He whom they seized and released.'

5'Therefore, He laughs at their intellectual blindness: He knows that they were born blind.'

6'He who is subject to suffering will come; the body is a substitute. But what they released was my incorporeal body.'

7'While I am intellectual spirit, full of resplendent light.'

8'Therefore, the things you have seen you must transmit to the other race, to those who do not proceed from this aeon.'
