v1.c7.436

The Dhammapada Commentary¹²³ states that once when Ānanda was a blacksmith he sinned with the wife of another man. As a result, he suffered in hell for a long time and was born for fourteen existences as some one’s wife, and it was seven existences more before the results of his evil deed were exhausted.
