Cut off, to be

  

In Daniel 9:26, this signifies that divine truth shall be taken from the people, but will live again in a new church. (Apocalypse Explained 315[23])

In Genesis 17:14, this signifies eternal death. (Arcana Coelestia 2058)

In Exodus 23:23, this signifies that hell is removed solely through the protection of heaven by the Lord. (Arcana Coelestia 9316) To be cut off, as in Genesis 41:36, signifies to perish.

9316. 'And brings you to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, and I cut them off' means when the Lord provides protection against the evils and falsities molesting the Church, and removes them. This is clear from the meaning of 'the angel', who will bring them to the nations mentioned by name, as the Lord, dealt with in 9303, 9315; from the meaning of 'the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite' as evils and falsities molesting the Church (which evils and which falsities are meant specifically by each nation, see 8054), for when the children of Israel were brought into the land of Canaan, that which served to represent the Church and heaven was established among them, and among the nations that which served to represent the evils and falsities molesting the Church (regarding this, see 3686, 4447, 6306, 6516, 8054, 8317); and from the meaning of 'cutting off' as providing protection, and so as removing. The mere protection of heaven by the Lord causes hell to be removed, that is, the mere protection of those governed by goodness and truth causes those ruled by evil and falsity to be removed, see just above in 9313.
