4 And they said to Pharaoh, To sojourn in the land have we come; for there is no pasture for the flock which belongs to thy servants; for the famine is heavy in the land of Canaan; and now, we pray, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.

6067. 'Have come from the land of Canaan' means that they originate in the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'coming from some land or other' as originating there; and from the meaning of 'the land of Canaan' as the Lord's kingdom in heaven and the Lord's kingdom on earth, which is the Church, dealt with in 1607, 3038, 3481, 3686, 3705, 4447, 4454, 5136.
