3500. 'And go out to the field' means where a good ground exists. This is clear from the meaning of 'the field' as the good that constitutes the Church and also the good taught by doctrine, dealt with in 2971, 3196, 3310, 3317 - thus a ground that is good.

1413. 'To the land which I will cause you to see' means the spiritual and celestial things that were to be brought to view. This is clear from the meaning of 'a land', 662, 1066, and indeed from the meaning here of 'the land of Canaan' which represents the Lord's kingdom, as becomes clear from many places in the Word. For this reason the land of Canaan is called the Holy Land, and also the heavenly Canaan. And since it represented the Lord's kingdom, it also represented and meant the celestial and spiritual things that belong to the Lord's kingdom, and here those that belong to the Lord Himself.
