Εξηλθε δε ο βασιλευς των Σοδομων, και ο βασιλευς των Γομορρων, και ο βασιλευς της Αδαμα, και ο βασιλευς των Σεβωειμ, και ο βασιλευς της Βελα, ητις ειναι η Σηγωρ· και συνεκροτησαν μαχην μετ' αυτων εν τη κοιλαδι Σιδδιμ,

1688. The valley of Siddim was pits, pits [or, full of pits] of bitumen. That this signifies the uncleanness of the falsities and cupidities, is evident from the signification of “Siddim,” which is uncleanness (as stated above at verse 3); also from the signification of “pits,” as being falsities and of “bitumen,” as being cupidities. Falsities are called “pits,” from the unclean water in them; and cupidities are called “bitumen,” from the foul sulphurous smell in such water.
