4398. 'Where he had stretched his tent' means holiness. This is clear from the meaning of 'a tent' as holiness, dealt with in 414, 1102, 2145, 2152, 3210.

6104. 'In the land of Rameses' means the inmost part of the mind and the essential nature of it. This is clear from the consideration that all names in the Word, both of persons and of places, mean spiritual entities, 1888, 3412, 4298, 4442, 5095, 5215. And since 'the land of Goshen' is the inmost part of the natural mind, 5910, 6018, 6031, 6068, 'Rameses', which was the best region in the land of Goshen, is the inmost part of the spiritual within the natural mind. But the essential nature of this inmost part can hardly be comprehended by man since it contains countless and also indescribable features which can be seen only in the light of heaven, and so only by angels. The same applies to the essential nature meant by all other names both of places and of persons that occur in the Word.
