2386. Verse 12 And the men said to Lot, Whom have you here still? Son-in-law, and your sons, and your daughters, and everyone you have in the city - bring [them] out of the place.

'The men said to Lot' means that the Lord warns those with whom the good of charity is present. 'Whom have you here still? Son-in-law, and your sons, and your daughters, and everyone you have in the city - bring [them] out of the place' means that all with whom the good of charity exists, and everything belonging to that good, were to be saved; also those governed by the truth of faith, provided they drew back from evil - 'sons-in-law' meaning truths coupled to affections for good [and truth], here truths that have yet to be coupled; 'sons' meaning truths; 'daughters' meaning affections for good and truth; 'everyone you have in the city' meaning whatever derives anything from truth; 'place' meaning a state of evil.
