The answer
“This is the second death.And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire” (Rev. 20:14–15). St Jacob of Sarug says:
“There, justice will praise the righteous and the evildoers will be blamed for their deeds.
There, images of the glory of the beautiful will be formed by the fiery colors of the intangible burning flame.
There, the hateful deeds of the evildoers will be declared and all will stand with their deeds without a veil.
There, he who is deserving will be glorified by his deeds, for there is no favoritism.
In that court, uprightness prevails and all verdicts are fairly made. The true, final revenge is accomplished, for there is no reason that evildoers be sheltered from punishment.”1247
