Third Baruch

English, translated by Online Critical Pseudepigrapha — Online Critical Pseudepigrapha, English of the critical text

And I, Baruch, said to the angel, “I ask you one thing, Lord:

since you told me that the dragon drinks one cubit from the sea, tell me also how large is its belly?”

And the angel said, “Its belly is Hades. And as much lead as three hundred men can throw, so great is its belly. Come, then, that I may show you even greater works than these.”
