7866. 'And you shall eat it in haste' means their feeling in their state of separation. This is clear from the meaning of 'haste' as a feeling, since haste is the expression of a feeling, dealt with in 7695. Here it is their feeling in their state of separation, for they had been separated from the molesters, who are meant by 'the Egyptians'.

7695. 'And Pharaoh hastened to call Moses and Aaron' means fear at this time of the truth from God. This is clear from the meaning of 'hastening' as acting out of fear, for all haste is the result of some feeling that has been aroused, in this case a feeling of fear, as is evident from Pharaoh's words 'I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you; plead with Him to remove from me this death only'; from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who engage in molestation, dealt with rather often; and from the representation of 'Moses and Aaron' as the truth from God, 'Moses' being inward truth and 'Aaron' outward truth, dealt with in 7089, 7382.
