6043. 'And say to him, My brothers and my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me' means that the truths and forms of good which the Church possesses are to be introduced [into that knowledge]. This is clear from the representation of the sons of Israel, to whom his 'brothers' refers here, as spiritual truths within the natural, dealt with just above in 6040; from the meaning of 'father's house' as the forms of good there, also dealt with just above, in 6041; from the meaning of 'the land of Canaan' as the Church, dealt with in 3686, 3705, 4447, 4517, 5136; and from the meaning of 'coming' to Joseph, or to Egypt where Joseph was, as being introduced into the Church's factual knowledge, dealt with above in 6004, 6018. Regarding the introduction of the truths the Church possesses into the factual knowledge present in the natural, see above in 6023, and regarding the joining together of them, below in 6047.

4517. 'To the Canaanite and the Perizzite' means those who are governed by good and truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'the Canaanite' here as those who are governed by the good of the Church, and 'the Perizzite' those who are governed by the truth of the Church. Canaanite and Perizzite have these meanings because the Ancient Church continued to exist in that land among those people, as stated just above in 4516. For in that land there were people who belonged to the Most Ancient Church, see 4447, 4454. There were also those who belonged to the Ancient Church, in particular the one called the Hebrew Church, which was why people from the land of Canaan were in general called the Hebrews, Genesis 40:15, and had altars and offered sacrifices, and why after they had become idolaters the command was frequently given for their altars to be destroyed. Therefore so long as the Church or something like the Church remained with them 'the Canaanites' meant the good of the Church and 'the Perizzites' the truth of the Church. But once everything of the Church with these had reached its end 'Canaanite' means evil and 'Perizzite' falsify, 1573, 1574.
