19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, to Gaza; as thou goest to Sodom and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even to Lashah.

1199. Verse 15 And Canaan begot Sidon, his firstborn, and Heth.

Here, as previously, 'Canaan' means external worship that has nothing internal within it. 'Sidon' means the exterior cognitions of spiritual things, and because such cognitions are the primary things of such external worship Sidon is called Canaan's 'firstborn.' 'Heth' means the exterior cognitions of celestial things.
