5940. 'And go, get you to the land of Canaan' means their dwelling-place, that is to say, that of the truths of the Church within the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'the land of Canaan' as the dwelling-place of those who belonged to the Church, dealt with in 3705, 3686, 4447, 4454, 4517, 5136, and so the dwelling-place of the truths of the Church together with good, for truths together with good constitute the Church.
