25
Det være langt fra dig å gjøre slikt og slå ihjel den rettferdige sammen med den ugudelige, så det går den rettferdige på samme vis som den ugudelige! Det være langt fra dig! Den som dømmer hele jorden, skulde ikke han gjøre rett?
1 Mosebok 18:25
Arcana Coelestia # 2282
2282. Verse 32 And he said, Let not now my Lord be incensed, and I will speak just once more; perhaps ten will be found there. And He said, I will not destroy it for the sake of the ten.
'He said, Let not now my Lord be incensed, and I will speak just once more' means continuing deep concern over the state of the human race. 'Perhaps ten will be found [there]' means if remnants were still present. 'And He said, I will not destroy it for the sake of the ten' means that they will be saved.
