Summary
In The Divine Comedy, author Dante Alighieri illustrates “Inferno,” his interpretation of Hell, which is divided into nine distinct “circles,” each designated for a particular severity of sinner. Within the ninth and innermost circle resides Satan, forever trapped inside a mountain of ice, perpetually beating his wings and eternally devouring the body and soul of Judas the Iscariot. This special treatment is reserved for the man who exchanged Jesus Christ for some pocket-change, the man who Dante describes as the greatest betrayer in history.
