‏ Wisdom of Solomon 17:15

15 Then, if any among them had fallen away, he was kept in a prison without bars which had been left open. ^{▼▼17:15The prison without bars, literally “without iron,” is hell. Hell has been left open at this time, meaning either that it is open to accept new residents, or it is open to send up fearful things to the unjust.(Conte)}
