1439. Verse 6 And Abram went through the land as far as the place of Shechem, as far as the oak-grove of Moreh. And the Canaanite was at that time in the land.
'Abram went through the land as far as the place of Shechem' means the Lord's second state, when the celestial things of love, which are meant by Shechem, became apparent to Him. 'As far as the oak-grove of Moreh' means a third state, namely a first perception, which is 'the oak-grove of Moreh'. 'And the Canaanite was at that time in the land' means the hereditary evil from the mother, in His external man.
