Matthew 8:12
Douay-Rheims
But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into the exterior darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Haymo of Halberstadt
What they should suffer there, He shews when He adds, There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Thus in metaphor He describes the sufferings of the tormented limbs; the eyes shed tears when filled with smoke, and the teeth chatter together from cold. This shews that the wicked in hell shall endure both extreme cold and extreme heat: according to that in Job, They shall pass from rivers of snow to the scorching heat. (Job 24:19.)
