843. About a city on this side of Gehenna

To many there also appears a large city, with tall buildings, situated in front of Gehenna [751], where many seem to themselves to dwell. Some who were there told others that they are in a calm city, where they do nothing but kindnesses to one another, and all things are done fairly, so that one does not harm another, but wants what is right. Such are allowed to stay in that city, but not others.
