10463. 'And burned it in the fire' means arising completely from self-love and love of the world, which are condemned to hell. This is clear from the meaning of 'the fire' as heavenly love, which is love to the Lord and love towards the neighbour, and in the contrary sense hellish love, which is self-love and love of the world, dealt with in 4906, 5071, 5215, 6314, 6832, 6834, 6849, 7324, 7575, 10055. Consequently 'being burned in the fire' means being filled completely with self-love and love of the world, thus being condemned to hell; for when those loves reign they constitute hell with a person. From all this it is evident what is meant by 'hell fire', spoken of in various places in the Word.
