In Genesis 18:27, this signifies the humility of the Lord's human as to its quality. (Arcana Coelestia 2265)

In Exodus 9:8, this signifies lustful falsities excited by the presence of infesting spirits. (Arcana Coelestia 7519, Apocalypse Explained 962[8])

In Ezekiel 27:30, this signifies something condemned, because the fire from which they come signifies infernal love. (Apocalypse Explained 441)

In Jeremiah 6:26, this signifies mourning because of the destruction of good and truth in the church. (Arcana Coelestia 637[9])
