Talk:2 Ne 7:6-11

2 Nephi 7:11 intrigues me. I can't exactly figure out if the Lord is condemning "all ye that kindle fire" or whether this is a possible symbolism for good spirituality (light of the Spirit) or a symbol of bad pride and self-absorption.

On the positive side it is almost a command "to walk in the light of your fire" but this could be sarcastic? For the negative interpretation it ends with the warning: "ye shall lie down in sorrow."
