10631. Verses 10-11. And He said, Behold I make a covenant; before all thy people I will do wonderful things, such as have not been created in all the earth, and in all nations; and all the people in the midst of whom thou art shall see the work of Jehovah, because this is a wonderful thing that I do with thee. Keep thou that which I command thee this day; behold I drive out from thy faces the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. “And He said, Behold I make a covenant,” signifies the primary things whereby there is the conjunction of the Lord with the human race by means of the Word; “before all thy people I will do wonderful things,” signifies the Word, in that it is Divine in each and all things for the sake of the church; “such as have not been created in all the earth, and in all nations,” signifies that there never was such a Divine in the world where the church is, and where the church is not; “and all the people in the midst of whom thou art shall see the work of Jehovah,” signifies that all by whom the Word is received will acknowledge the Divine therein; “because this is a wonderful thing that I do with thee,” signifies the quality of the Word in each and all things; “keep thou that which I command thee this day,” signifies if they do these primary things which are of the eternal truth; “behold, I drive out from thy faces the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite,” signifies the removal then of evils and of the falsities thence derived.
