1413. 'To the land which I will cause you to see' means the spiritual and celestial things that were to be brought to view. This is clear from the meaning of 'a land', 662, 1066, and indeed from the meaning here of 'the land of Canaan' which represents the Lord's kingdom, as becomes clear from many places in the Word. For this reason the land of Canaan is called the Holy Land, and also the heavenly Canaan. And since it represented the Lord's kingdom, it also represented and meant the celestial and spiritual things that belong to the Lord's kingdom, and here those that belong to the Lord Himself.

754. Verse 11 In the six hundredth year of the years of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were split open, and the floodgates of heaven were opened.
'The six hundredth year, the second month, and the seventeenth day' means the second state of temptation. 'All the fountains of the great deep were split open' means the full extent of temptation involving things of the will. 'The floodgates of heaven were opened' means the full extent of temptation involving those of the understanding.
