Mary said: "My Lord, what is the judgment of the thief and of the robber who taketh by force what is not his?"

2Jesus answered: "The soul of the thief and the robber is handed over to the receivers of the sphere, who cast it into the frozen pits and bitter frosts.

3"And after it hath been frozen in ice, they cast it into boiling cauldrons of sulfur, passing from frost to fire and from fire to frost, until its purification is accomplished."
