10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the Plain of the Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before Jehovah destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest unto Zoar.

Behind

  

To be behind, (Genesis 18:10), signifies not to be joined together, but at his back. What is separated from any one, this is represented in another life, by a kind of rejection, as it were, to the back. (Arcana Coelestia 2196)

In Genesis 19:17, this signifies being away from doctrinal things. (Arcana Coelestia 2417)

In Genesis 16:13, Here, behind, or after, signifies within or above, or an interior or superior principle.

In Revelation 1:10, 'behind' signifies that people who do not approach the Lord only (Apocalypse Revealed 42)
