Exodus 34:15

Study

       

15 lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and then, when they go a whoring after their gods, and sacrifice unto their gods, thou be invited, and eat of their sacrifice,

from the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg

 

Arcana Coelestia #10664

Studere hoc loco

10664. 'And if you will not redeem it you shall break its neck' means that if the truth of innocence is not present within it, it is to be separated and cast aside. This is clear from what has been stated in 8079, where similar words occur.
