2443. Verse 24. And Jehovah caused it to rain upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah out of heaven. “Jehovah caused it to rain upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire,” signifies the hell of those who are in the evils of the love of self and the falsities thence derived; “to rain” is to be damned; “brimstone” is the hell of the love of self; “fire” is the hell of the falsities thence derived; “from Jehovah out of heaven,” signifies from the laws of order as to truth, because they separate themselves from good.
