Matthew 23:15
By “son of Gehenna” (Matthew 23:15) he means the one being destroyed from unbelief — as having slid into this through impiety and reached such a measure of lawlessness as to have unmediated intimacy with the flame, and all but kinship toward <bearing> the torments without dispute.
Greek
Υἱὸν γεέννης φησὶ τὸν ἀπολλύμενον ἐξ ἀπιστίας ὡς δυσσεβείας εἰς τοῦτο κατολισθεῖν καὶ εἰς τοῦτο παρανομίας ἀφικέσθαι μέτρον ὡς ἀμεσίτευτον ἔχειν πρὸς φλόγα τὴν οἰκειότητα καὶ μονονουχὶ συγγένειαν τὴν πρὸς <τὸ τὰς> αἰκίας ἀναμφιλόγως διενεγκεῖν.
