Arcana Coelestia＃4544
4544. 'Remove the gods of the foreigner which are in the midst of you' means that falsities were to be cast aside. This is clear from the meaning of 'removing' as casting aside, and from the meaning of 'the gods of the foreigner' as falsities; for in the Word 'gods' means truths and in the contrary sense falsities, 4402. Those people were called 'foreigners' who were outside the Church and therefore those who were subject to falsities and evils, 2049, 2115; and this explains why 'the gods of the foreigner' means falsities.
Ezequiel 20:43
43
Y allí os acordaréis de vuestros caminos, y de todos vuestros hechos en que os contaminasteis; y os avergonzaréis de vosotros mismos por todos vuestros pecados que cometisteis.
