Arcana Coelestia # 1367
1367. That 'Haran' means interior idolatrous worship and 'Terah' idolatrous worship in general has been stated and shown already. That 'the land of his birth' means the source from which their idolatrous worship derived is clear from the meaning of 'birth' as a source and derivation, dealt with above at verses 10 and 27.
Ezekiel 16:28-29
28
You have played the prostitute also with the Assyrians, because you were insatiable; yes, you have played the prostitute with them, and yet you weren't satisfied.
29
You have moreover multiplied your prostitution to the land of merchants, to Chaldea; and yet you weren't satisfied with this.
