2458. Verse 30. And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar; and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters. “Lot went up out of Zoar,” signifies when they were no longer in the affection of truth; “and dwelt in the mountain,” signifies that they then betook themselves to a kind of good; “and his two daughters with him,” signifies that so did the affections thence derived; “for he feared to dwell in Zoar,” signifies because they could no longer look to good from the affection of truth; “and he dwelt in a cave,” signifies the good of falsity; “and his two daughters,” signifies the affections thence derived, which are those of such good and such falsity.
