Commentary

 

Lust

  

In Exodus 15:9 and Psalm 78:18, this signifies the enjoyment of people in hell when they can reduce others to servitude. (Arcana Coelestia 8293) The love of self, or of ruling from the love of self, is the same as the lust.

In Mark 4:19, this signifies things that pervert not only truths, but also goods. (Arcana Coelestia 7293[5])

In Revelation 18:14, this signifies felicities of heaven, which are the fruits of all doctrine and worship. (Apocalypse Revealed 782)
