3415. 'Go away from being with us, for you are much mightier than we are' means that they would not be able to tolerate those things because of their Divine content. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'going away from being with us' as finding its presence intolerable, and from the meaning of 'being much mightier' as on account of the riches, here the Divine riches, which interior truths hold within them. Those who are called 'the Philistines' cannot tolerate the presence of good, nor thus the presence of the Divine; see just above in 3413.
