7539. 'And you are to say to him, Thus said Jehovah the God of the Hebrews' means a command from the Lord, who is the God of the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying', when done by Jehovah or the Lord to those who are immersed in evils and engage in molestation, as a command, as in 7036, 7310; from the meaning of 'the Hebrews' as those who belong to the Church, and so are the Church, dealt with in 6675, 6684, 6738; and since the Lord is the one who is meant when the name Jehovah is used in the Word, see 1343, 1736, 2921, 3023, 3035, 5041, 5663, 6280, 6281, 6303, 6905, 6945, 6956, 'Jehovah the God of the Hebrews' means the Lord who is the God of the Church.

6956. 'In order that they may believe that Jehovah has appeared to you' means in order that they may possess faith with regard to the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'believing' as being in possession of faith, not faith that Jehovah or the Lord has been seen with the eyes, but the kind of faith in the Lord that is meant in the spiritual sense; and from the meaning of 'Jehovah has appeared' as the Lord's appearance within His Divine Human, dealt with in 6945, so that 'they may believe that Jehovah has appeared to you' means in order that they may possess faith with regard to the Lord's Divine Human.
