That this signifies reception then from influx into the external, and worship from humiliation, is evident from the signification of “making haste,” as being affection (see n. 7695, 7866), here reception by means of influx, because all influx from the Divine is into the affection of man, and the reception by man is also in affection; from the representation of Moses as being that external of the church, of worship, and of the Word, which receives the internal (n. 10607, 10614); from the signification of “bowing one’s self,” as being exterior humiliation (n. 5682, 7068); and from the signification of “adoring,” as being worship.
