That "Sodom" is all evil from the love of self, is evident from the signification of "Sodom" in the Word.

It is intelligence and wisdom that make an ange... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ac§ion=2304 A Disclosure of the Hidden Treasures of Heaven Contained in the Holy Scripture or Word of the Lord, Together with Amazing Things Seen in the World of Spirits and in the Heaven of Angels 2318 2318.
