4452. 'And the land shall be before you; dwell' means the Church which would be one. This is clear from the meaning of 'the land' as the Church, dealt with in 566, 662, 1066, 1067, 1413, 1607, 3355, 4447, and from the meaning of 'dwelling with us' as living together, dealt with immediately above in 4451, thus that the Church would be one.
