2361. Verse 8 (Genesis 19:8). Behold I pray I have two daughters who have not known man; let me I pray bring them out unto you, and ye may do unto them as is good in your eyes; only unto these men do not anything; for therefore are they come under the shadow of my roof. “Behold I pray I have two daughters who have not known man,” signifies the affections of good and of truth; “let me I pray bring them out unto you,” signifies blessedness therefrom; “and ye may do unto them as is good in your eyes,” signifies enjoyment insofar as they perceived it to be from good; “only unto these men do not anything;” signifies that they should not do violence to the Lord’s Divine Human and Holy proceeding; “for therefore are they come under the shadow of my roof,” signifies that they are in the good of charity; the “shadow of the roof,” denoting in his obscure general [perception] of it.
