1665. Verse 3 All these were gathered together at the valley of Siddim, which is the Salt Sea.

'All these were gathered together at the valley of Siddim' means that they were immersed in the unclean things that go with evil desires. 'Which is the Salt Sea' means the foul things that accompany derivative falsities.
