7266. THE INTERNAL SENSE
Verses 1-7 And Jehovah said to Moses, See, I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet. You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, to send the children of Israel out of his land. And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt. And Pharaoh will not hear 1
you; and I will lay My hand on the Egyptians, and will lead My armies, My people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt with great judgements. And the Egyptians will know that I am Jehovah, when I stretch out My hand over the Egyptians; and I will lead the children of Israel out of the midst of them. And Moses and Aaron did so; as Jehovah had commanded them, so they did. And Moses was a son of eighty years, and Aaron a son of eighty-three years, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
