Και εσηκωσα τους οφθαλμους μου και ειδον και ιδου, ιστατο εμπροσθεν του ποταμου κριος εις εχων κερατα· και τα κερατα ησαν υψηλα, το εν ομως υψηλοτερον του αλλου· και το υψηλοτερον εξεφυτρωσεν υστερον.

2404. Verse 15 As dawn ascended the angels pressed Lot to hurry, saying, Rise up, take your wife and your two daughters found [here], lest you are consumed in the iniquity of the city.
'As dawn ascended' means when the Lord's kingdom draws near. 'The angels pressed Lot to hurry' means that the Lord withheld them from evil and maintained them in good. 'Saying, Rise up, take your wife and two daughters found [here]' means the truth of faith, and the affections for truth and for good, 'found' meaning that these had been separated from evil. 'Lest you are consumed in the iniquity of the city' means lest they perished in evils deriving from falsity.
