10421. Which thou madest to come up out of the land of Egypt. That this signifies whom thou didst believe to be led to the Divine, is evident from the signification of “making to come up out of the land of Egypt,” as being to raise from what is external to what is internal, thus to lead to the Divine, for by “making to come up” is signified to raise from what is external to what is internal; and by “Egypt” is signified the natural or external man, from which is the raising. (That “making to come up” denotes to raise from what is external to what is internal, see n. 3084, 4539, 4969, 5406, 5817 and that “Egypt” denotes what is natural or external, see the places cited in n. 9391)
