In this episode of their Swedenborg and Life web series, hosts Curtis Childs and Jonathan Rose study the inner meaning of the first commandment.

Zechariah 14:5-7
5
You shall flee by the valley of my mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel; yes, you shall flee, just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Yahweh my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.
6
It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.
7
It will be a unique day which is known to Yahweh; not day, and not night; but it will come to pass, that at evening time there will be light.
