1 ὡς δὲ ἤκουσεν ιαβιν βασιλεὺς ασωρ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς ιωβαβ βασιλέα μαρρων καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα συμοων καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα αζιφ

2 καὶ πρὸς τοὺς βασιλεῖς τοὺς κατὰ σιδῶνα τὴν μεγάλην εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν καὶ εἰς τὴν ραβα ἀπέναντι κενερωθ καὶ εἰς τὸ πεδίον καὶ εἰς ναφεδδωρ

3 καὶ εἰς τοὺς παραλίους χαναναίους ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν καὶ εἰς τοὺς παραλίους αμορραίους καὶ ευαίους καὶ ιεβουσαίους καὶ φερεζαίους τοὺς ἐν τῷ ὄρει καὶ τοὺς χετταίους τοὺς ὑπὸ τὴν αερμων εἰς γῆν μασσηφα

4 καὶ ἐξῆλθον αὐτοὶ καὶ οἱ βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν μετ' αὐτῶν ὥσπερ ἡ ἄμμος τῆς θαλάσσης τῷ πλήθει καὶ ἵπποι καὶ ἅρματα πολλὰ σφόδρα

5 καὶ συνῆλθον πάντες οἱ βασιλεῖς οὗτοι καὶ παρεγένοντο ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐπὶ τοῦ ὕδατος μαρρων πολεμῆσαι τὸν ισραηλ

6 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς ἰησοῦν μὴ φοβηθῇς ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν ὅτι αὔριον ταύτην τὴν ὥραν ἐγὼ παραδίδωμι τετροπωμένους αὐτοὺς ἐναντίον τοῦ ισραηλ τοὺς ἵππους αὐτῶν νευροκοπήσεις καὶ τὰ ἅρματα αὐτῶν κατακαύσεις ἐν πυρί

7 καὶ ἦλθεν ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ πολεμιστὴς ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ τὸ ὕδωρ μαρρων ἐξάπινα καὶ ἐπέπεσαν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ὀρεινῇ

8 καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς κύριος ὑποχειρίους ισραηλ καὶ κόπτοντες αὐτοὺς κατεδίωκον ἕως σιδῶνος τῆς μεγάλης καὶ ἕως μασερων καὶ ἕως τῶν πεδίων μασσωχ κατ' ἀνατολὰς καὶ κατέκοψαν αὐτοὺς ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλειφθῆναι αὐτῶν διασεσῳσμένον

9 καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτοῖς ἰησοῦς ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ κύριος τοὺς ἵππους αὐτῶν ἐνευροκόπησεν καὶ τὰ ἅρματα αὐτῶν ἐνέπρησεν ἐν πυρί

10 καὶ ἀπεστράφη ἰησοῦς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ καὶ κατελάβετο ασωρ καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς ἦν δὲ ασωρ τὸ πρότερον ἄρχουσα πασῶν τῶν βασιλειῶν τούτων

11 καὶ ἀπέκτειναν πᾶν ἐμπνέον ἐν αὐτῇ ἐν ξίφει καὶ ἐξωλέθρευσαν πάντας καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη ἐν αὐτῇ ἐμπνέον καὶ τὴν ασωρ ἐνέπρησαν ἐν πυρί

12 καὶ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τῶν βασιλέων καὶ τοὺς βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν ἔλαβεν ἰησοῦς καὶ ἀνεῖλεν αὐτοὺς ἐν στόματι ξίφους καὶ ἐξωλέθρευσαν αὐτούς ὃν τρόπον συνέταξεν μωυσῆς ὁ παῖς κυρίου

13 ἀλλὰ πάσας τὰς πόλεις τὰς κεχωματισμένας οὐκ ἐνέπρησεν ισραηλ πλὴν ασωρ μόνην ἐνέπρησεν ἰησοῦς

14 καὶ πάντα τὰ σκῦλα αὐτῆς ἐπρονόμευσαν ἑαυτοῖς οἱ υἱοὶ ισραηλ αὐτοὺς δὲ πάντας ἐξωλέθρευσαν ἐν στόματι ξίφους ἕως ἀπώλεσεν αὐτούς οὐ κατέλιπον ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐδὲ ἓν ἐμπνέον

15 ὃν τρόπον συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ μωυσῇ τῷ παιδὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ μωυσῆς ὡσαύτως ἐνετείλατο τῷ ἰησοῖ καὶ οὕτως ἐποίησεν ἰησοῦς οὐ παρέβη οὐδὲν ἀπὸ πάντων ὧν συνέταξεν αὐτῷ μωυσῆς

16 καὶ ἔλαβεν ἰησοῦς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν τὴν ὀρεινὴν καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ναγεβ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν γοσομ καὶ τὴν πεδινὴν καὶ τὴν πρὸς δυσμαῖς καὶ τὸ ὄρος ισραηλ καὶ τὰ ταπεινά

17 τὰ πρὸς τῷ ὄρει ἀπὸ ὄρους αχελ καὶ ὃ προσαναβαίνει εἰς σηιρ καὶ ἕως βααλγαδ καὶ τὰ πεδία τοῦ λιβάνου ὑπὸ τὸ ὄρος τὸ αερμων καὶ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν ἔλαβεν καὶ ἀνεῖλεν αὐτοὺς καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν

18 καὶ πλείους ἡμέρας ἐποίησεν ἰησοῦς πρὸς τοὺς βασιλεῖς τούτους τὸν πόλεμον

19 καὶ οὐκ ἦν πόλις ἣν οὐκ ἔλαβεν ισραηλ πάντα ἐλάβοσαν ἐν πολέμῳ

20 ὅτι διὰ κυρίου ἐγένετο κατισχῦσαι αὐτῶν τὴν καρδίαν συναντᾶν εἰς πόλεμον πρὸς ισραηλ ἵνα ἐξολεθρευθῶσιν ὅπως μὴ δοθῇ αὐτοῖς ἔλεος ἀλλ' ἵνα ἐξολεθρευθῶσιν ὃν τρόπον εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς μωυσῆν

21 καὶ ἦλθεν ἰησοῦς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ καὶ ἐξωλέθρευσεν τοὺς ενακιμ ἐκ τῆς ὀρεινῆς ἐκ χεβρων καὶ ἐκ δαβιρ καὶ ἐξ αναβωθ καὶ ἐκ παντὸς γένους ισραηλ καὶ ἐκ παντὸς ὄρους ιουδα σὺν ταῖς πόλεσιν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐξωλέθρευσεν αὐτοὺς ἰησοῦς

22 οὐ κατελείφθη τῶν ενακιμ ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν ισραηλ ἀλλὰ πλὴν ἐν γάζῃ καὶ ἐν γεθ καὶ ἐν ασεδωθ κατελείφθη

23 καὶ ἔλαβεν ἰησοῦς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν καθότι ἐνετείλατο κύριος τῷ μωυσῇ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοὺς ἰησοῦς ἐν κληρονομίᾳ ισραηλ ἐν μερισμῷ κατὰ φυλὰς αὐτῶν καὶ ἡ γῆ κατέπαυσεν πολεμουμένη

2909. 'In Kiriath Arba, which is Hebron in the land of Canaan' means within the Church. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'Kiriath Arba' as the Church as regards truth, and from the meaning of 'Hebron in the land of Canaan' as the Church as regards good. In the Word, especially the prophetical part, whenever truth is the subject, good also is included, on account of the heavenly marriage that exists in every detail of the Word, see 683, 793, 801, 2173, 2516, 2712. Here therefore when Kiriath Arba is mentioned, so also is 'Hebron in the land of Canaan'. The land of Canaan is the Lord's kingdom, 1413, 1437, 1607, and locations in that land were in varying ways representative, 1585, 1866.

[2] As regards 'Kiriath Arba, which is Hebron', this was a region where Abraham, Isaac and Jacob dwelt. Abraham's dwelling there is evident from what has gone before,

Abraham came and dwelt in [the oak-groves of] Mamre, which are in Hebron. Genesis 13:18.

And Isaac and Jacob's dwelling there too is evident from what comes further on, Jacob came to Isaac his father in Mamre, to Kiriath Arba, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned. Genesis 35:27.

Joseph was sent by Jacob his father to his brothers, from the Valley of Hebron. Genesis 37:14.

From the representation dealt with already of those three personages it is clear that 'Kiriath Arba, which is Hebron' represented the Church before Jerusalem did so.

[3] In the course of time every Church deteriorates until it ceases to possess any faith or charity at all, at which point it is destroyed. This too was represented by 'Kiriath Arba, which is Hebron', that is to say, when this place was occupied by the Anakim, by whom dreadful false persuasions were meant, 581, 1673, regarding which occupation by the Anakim, see Numbers 13:21-22; Joshua 11:21; 14:15; 15:13-14; Judges 1:10. As regards the end or close of the Church and its destruction, this was represented by Joshua's utterly destroying everything in that place, Joshua 10:36-37; 11:21, and by Judah and Caleb's smiting the Anakim, Judges 1:10; Joshua 14:13-15; 15:13-14. The establishment again of a new Church was represented by the allotment of its fields and villages to Caleb as his inheritance, Joshua 21:12. The city itself however became a city of refuge, Joshua 20:7; 21:13, and a city for priests, for the sons of Aaron, Joshua 21:10-11, within the inheritance of Judah, Joshua 15:54.

[4] From this it is evident that Hebron represented the Lord's spiritual Church in the land of Canaan. For the same reason also David was ordered by Jehovah's command to go to Hebron and was there anointed king over the house of Judah; and after he had reigned there for seven years and six months he went to Jerusalem and took possession of Zion, see 2 Samuel 2:1-11; 5:5; 1 Kings 2:11, at which point the Lord's spiritual Church now began to be represented by Jerusalem, and His celestial Church by Zion.
