Talmud su Zaccaria 13:9

וְהֵבֵאתִ֤י אֶת־הַשְּׁלִשִׁית֙ בָּאֵ֔שׁ וּצְרַפְתִּים֙ כִּצְרֹ֣ף אֶת־הַכֶּ֔סֶף וּבְחַנְתִּ֖ים כִּבְחֹ֣ן אֶת־הַזָּהָ֑ב ה֣וּא ׀ יִקְרָ֣א בִשְׁמִ֗י וַֽאֲנִי֙ אֶעֱנֶ֣ה אֹת֔וֹ אָמַ֙רְתִּי֙ עַמִּ֣י ה֔וּא וְה֥וּא יֹאמַ֖ר יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהָֽי׃ (ס)

E porterò la terza parte attraverso il fuoco, e li raffinerò mentre l'argento è raffinato, e li proverò mentre l'oro è provato; Chiameranno il mio nome e io risponderò loro; Dirò:'Sono le mie persone'E diranno: 'L'Eterno è il mio Dio.'

Avot D'Rabbi Natan

Rabbi Yosei would say: The completely righteous are not included in this reckoning, nor are the completely wicked. Who, then, are we wondering about? All those in the middle. [As it says in (Psalms 116:4),] “Please, Lord, save my soul” – from the punishments of Gehenna, lest I be among those who go down into it screaming and come up from it screaming, as it says (Zechariah 13:9), “I will bring the third into the fire, and I will smelt them as one smelts silver, and test them as one tests gold.” The House of Hillel say: As it says (Psalms 63:4), “Your kindness is better than life itself, my lips praise You!” And it also says (Nehemiah 13:22), “Take pity on me (and them), in Your abundant kindness” (so that they are saved from the punishments of Gehenna).
