This is clear from the meaning here of 'a bridegroom' as a representative of the Church or the external aspect of it since the representative Church itself is 'the bride' (in these three verses 'Moses' represents that nation, and a representative of the Church among them, see above in 7041.

By 'the soles' lower natural things are meant, and by 'the heels' lowest natural, 259. In the Grand Man celestial things constitute the head, spiritual ones the body, and natural ones the feet; they exist in this consecutive order. In addition, celestial things, which are the highest, are ringed about by spiritual ones, which are in the middle; and spiritual things are ringed about by natural, which are lowest ones.
