1060. Verse 18. And the sons of Noah, that went forth from the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan. “The sons of Noah, that went forth from the ark” signify those who constituted the Ancient Church; “that went forth from the ark” signifies those who are regenerate; “Shem” signifies the internal church; “Ham” signifies the church corrupted; “Japheth” signifies the external church; “and Ham is the father of Canaan” signifies that from the corrupted church sprang worship in externals without internals, which worship is signified by “Canaan.”
