1 Послј сихъ происшествій, было слово Іеговы къ Авраму въ видјніи, и сказано: не бойся, Аврамъ; Я твой щитъ; награда твоя весьма велика.

2 Аврамъ сказалъ: Господи Іегова! что Ты дашь мнј? я отхожу бездјтенъ; за домоиъ моимъ смотритъ этотъ Эліезеръ изъ Дамаска.

3 И сказалъ Аврамъ: вотъ Ты не далъ мнј дјтей; и вотъ домочадецъ мой будетъ моимъ наслјдникомъ.

4 И се слово Іеговы къ нему, и сказано: не будетъ онъ твоимъ наслјдникомъ; но тотъ, кто произойдетъ изъ чреслъ твоихъ, будетъ твоимъ наслјдникомъ.

5 И вывелъ его на дворъ и сказалъ: посмотри на небеса, и сочти звјзды; можешь ли ты счесть ихъ? И сказалъ ему: столько будетъ у тебя потомковъ.

6 Аврамъ повјрилъ Іеговј; и Онъ вмјнилъ ему сіе въ праведность.

7 И сказалъ ему: Я Іегова, Который вывелъ тебя изъ Ура Халдейскаго, чтобы дать тебј землю сію въ наслјдіе.

8 Онъ сказалъ: Господи Іегова! почему мнј узнать, что я долженъ ее наслјдовать?

9 Іегова отвјтствовалъ ему: возми Мнј трилјтнюю телицу, трилјтнюю козу, трилјтняго овна, горлицу и молодаго голубя.

10 И взялъ онъ всјхъ ихъ, и разсјкъ ихъ пополамъ, и положилъ одну часть противъ другой, только птицъ не разсјкъ.

11 И налетјли на трупы хищныя птицы: но Аврамъ отгонялъ ихъ.

12 При захожденіи солнца, сонъ напалъ на Аврама; и се, нашелъ на него ужасъ и мракъ великій.

13 Тогда сказано Авраму: знай, что потомки твои будутъ пришельцами въ землј чужой; и будутъ въ порабощеніи и въ угнетеніи четыреста лјтъ.

14 Но Я произведу судъ надъ народомъ, у котораго они будутъ въ порабощеніи; послј сего они выдутъ съ великимъ богатствомъ.

15 А ты отъидешь къ отцамъ своимъ въ мирј, будешь погребенъ въ старости доброй.

16 Въ четвертомъ родј возвратятся они сюда: ибо нынј мјра беззаконія Аморрейскаго еще не наполнилась.

17 Наконецъ зашло солнце и наступилъ мракъ; и се, дымъ какъ бы изъ пещи, и свјтильникъ огненный, который прошелъ между разсјченными животными.

18 Въ сей день заключилъ Іегова завјтъ съ Аврамомъ, сказавъ: потомству твоему даю Я землю сію, отъ рјки Египетской до великой рјки Евфрата:

19 Кенеевъ, Кенезеевъ, Кедмонеевъ,

20 Хеттеевъ, Ферезеевъ, Рефаимовъ,

21 Аморреевъ, Хананеевъ, Гергесеевъ и Іевусеевъ.

6858. 'To the place of the Canaanite and the Hittite' means the region occupied by evils that arise from falsities. This is clear from the representation of 'the Canaanites' as evils that arise from the falsities of evil, dealt with in 4818; and from the representation of 'the Hittites' as falsities from which evils arise, dealt with in 2913. By the nations in the land of Canaan that are listed here as well as in other places, such as Genesis 15:18-19; Exodus 23:23, 28; 33:2; 34:11; Deuteronomy 7:1; 20:17; Joshua 3:10; 24:11; Judges 3:5, are meant all kinds of evil and falsity. What one should understand by a region occupied by evils that arise from falsities, and also by all the other kinds of evil and falsity, must be stated. Before the Lord's Coming into the world evil genii and spirits occupied the entire region of heaven to which those who were spiritual were subsequently raised. For before the Lord's Coming a large part of those kinds of beings were freely prowling about and molesting the good, especially spiritual people who were on the lower earth. But after the Lord's Coming they were all thrust down into their own hells, and that region was liberated and given as an inheritance to those who belonged to the spiritual Church. I have often noticed that as soon any place is abandoned by good spirits it is occupied by evil ones, but that the evil spirits are driven out of it; and that once they have been driven out it is handed over again to those who are governed by good. The reason for this is that those from hell have a constant burning desire to destroy the things of heaven, in particular those things that are their opposites. Consequently when some place is abandoned, then because it is unprotected it is instantly occupied by the evil. This, as has been stated, is what one should understand specifically by a region occupied by evils and falsities, which is meant by the place inhabited by the nations who were to be driven out. This together with the things mentioned above in 6854 is a deep mystery which cannot be known about without revelation.
