CONTENTS

The previous chapter dealt with those belonging to the Lord's spiritual kingdom, with how they were molested by falsities and because of these molestations were brought at length to the point of despair. Now their spirits are raised by hope and by the promise that they will certainly be delivered. This subject is dealt with in the internal sense of this chapter and is the meaning of the things Jehovah spoke to Moses.
