9332. 'And it will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before you' means the flight of falsities arising from evils. This is clear from the meaning of 'driving out' as putting to flight, and so flight itself; and from the meaning of 'the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite' as falsities arising from evils, 'the Hivite' being falsity arising from mild evil, 6860, 'the Canaanite' falsity arising from rather serious evil, 4818, 8054, and 'the Hittite' falsity arising from the most serious evil, 2913, 6858. Regarding the nations in the land of Canaan, that they mean all evils and falsities in their entirety, see the places referred to in 9327.
