The Shepherd of Hermas 93

Visions and Mandates

'Listen now about the twelve mountains. The first mountain, black, are the apostates and blasphemers, for whom there is no repentance.'

2'The second mountain, bare, are the hypocrites and those who teach lies. For these there is repentance if they do it quickly.'

3'The third mountain, full of thorns, are those who are involved in the businesses of the world and in riches. These will hardly enter the kingdom of God.'
