5
y llamaron a Lot, y le dijeron: ¿Dónde están los varones que vinieron a ti esta noche? Sácanolos, para que los conozcamos.
Génesis 19:5
Arcana Coelestia #2376
2376. 'They came near to break down the doors means that they went so far as to try and destroy them both. This is clear from the meaning of 'coming near' as making an attempt, and from the meaning of 'door' as that which leads on to good and to the Lord, and also as good itself and the Lord Himself, dealt with in 2356, 2357. For what these matters entail, see above in 2373.
