Arcana Coelestia #2408

That this signifies lest they should perish in the evils of falsity, is evident from the signification of “iniquity,” as being evil; and from the signification of “city,” as being what is doctrinal, even if it is false (see n. 402). What the evil of falsity is may be seen from what was said in Part First (n. 1212, 1679).
