In Jeremiah 4:12, this signifies a judgment or verdict against people who are in evil and falsity who are unwilling to receive goods and truths. (The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms 70)

In Psalm 17:2, this relates to the integrity of the Lord's earthly life. (The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms 267)

9270. 'For you were sojourners in the land of Egypt' means that they were protected from falsities and evils when they were molested by those from hell. This is clear from what has been shown in 9197, where the same words occur.
