Si autem somnium, et conjecturam ejus narraveritis, præmia, et dona, et honorem multum accipietis a me. Somnium igitur, et interpretationem ejus indicate mihi.
Daniel 2:6
Arcana Coelestia #1299
1299. 1 Quod ‘bitumen fuit iis pro luto’ significet quod malum cupiditatis pro bono, constat ex significatione ‘bituminis’ et ex significatione ‘luti’ in Verbo: hic quia agitur de aedificatione tum Babylonicae, praedicantur talia quae aedificationi inserviunt, tu bitumen quia sulphureum et igneum, quibus significantur in Verbo cupiditates imprimis quae sunt amoris sui; hic per ‘bitumen’ mala cupiditatum ut et falsa inde, quae etiam sunt mala quibus turris, de qua in sequentibus, exstruitur; quod talia significentur, constat apud Esaiam,
Dies ultionis Jehovae; ... convertentur torrentes ejus in picem, et pulvis ejus in sulphur; et erit terra ejus in picem ardentem, 34:8, 9;
‘pix et sulphur’ pro falsis et malis cupiditatum: praeter alibi.

2 Peter 3:9-17
9
The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.
11
Therefore since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
12
looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
13
But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
14
Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without blemish and blameless in his sight.
15
Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you;
16
as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
17
You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware, lest being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.
