Look
'Look not back behind thee,' as in Genesis 19:17, means that Lot, who represents the good of charity, should not look to matters of doctrine. 'To look up,' is to look to celestial things. In Genesis 18:22, looking signifies thinking because seeing denotes understanding.

Mark 4:3-7
3
"Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow,
4
and it happened, as he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
5
Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
6
When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7
Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
