Arcana Coelestia # 7201
7201. 'Therefore say to the children of Israel' means that the law of God will enable those who belong to the Lord's spiritual kingdom to discern. This is clear from the representation of Moses, the one who is told to 'say to the children of Israel', as the law of God, dealt with in 6723, 6752; from the meaning of 'saying' as discerning, dealt with in 1791, 1815, 1819, 1822, 1898, 1919, 2080, 2506, 2515, 2619, as enabling to discern, since the command 'say' has reference to the law of God; and from the representation of 'the children of Israel' as those who belong to the Lord's spiritual kingdom, dealt with in 6426, 6677.
Arcana Coelestia # 1819
1819. 'He said, O Lord Jehovih' means a conversing, so to speak, of the Interior Man with the Internal Man. This is clear from what was stated in the previous verse at the words 'Jehovah said to him', and also from what was stated in verse 2 of this chapter about the Lord Jehovih, as meaning a conversing of the Interior Man with the Internal Man, or Jehovah, especially when He was undergoing temptation.
