18
At binuhat ni Abram ang kaniyang tolda, at yumaon at tumahan sa mga punong encina ni Mamre na nasa Hebron, at siya'y nagtayo roon ng dambana sa Panginoon.
Genesis 13:18
Arcana Coelestia #1543
1543. That 'Abram went up out of Egypt' means away from facts which went away from the Lord is clear from the meaning of 'Abram' as one who represents the Lord, then from the meaning of 'Egypt' as knowledge, and also from the meaning of 'going up', for 'going up' is used when a rising up takes place from the lower things that are factual to the higher ones that are celestial. Consequently in the Word 'going up from Egypt into the land of Canaan', an expression that occurs frequently, embodies similar ideas.
