Uz, Hul, Gether and Mash

  

'Uz, Hul, Gether and Mash,' as in Genesis 10:23, signify several kinds of knowledges derived from the knowledges of good, and anything pertaining those knowledges. Knowledges derived from the knowledges of good are natural truths, and anything pertaining to knowledges are actions based on them.

1207. Verse 19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon as you come towards Gerar, as far as Gaza, as you come towards Sodom and Gomorrah, and Admah and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.

Here, as previously, 'Sidon' means exterior cognitions. 'Gerar' means things that have been revealed concerning faith. 'Gaza' means things that have been revealed concerning charity. 'The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon as you come towards Gerar, as far as Gaza' means the extension of cognitions towards truth and good with those who have external worship devoid of internal. 'As you come towards Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboiim, as far as Lasha' means the falsities and evils which encompass them.
