Genesis 19:9

Studie

       

9 And they say, `Come nigh hither;' they say also, `This one hath Come in to sojourn, and he certainly judgeth! now, we do evil to thee more than [to] them;' and they press against the man, against Lot greatly, and Come nigh to break the door.

2340. 'And came to his house' means confirmation in good. This is clear from the meaning of 'a house' as celestial good, dealt with already in 2233, 2331. From this, as well as from the train of thought in the internal sense, it is clear that being confirmed in good is meant.
