18
Aga kui nad mõõtsid kannuga, siis ei olnud ülearu sellel, kes oli kogunud rohkem, ega tundnud puudust see, kes oli kogunud vähem; igaüks oli kogunud nõnda palju, kui ta sõi.
Exodus 16:18
Arcana Coelestia # 8528
8528. When I brought you forth from the land of Egypt. That this signifies after they had been liberated from infestations, is evident from the signification of “bringing forth,” as being to liberate; and from the signification of “the land of Egypt,” as being infestations (see n. 7278). That “the land of Egypt” denotes infestations is because by “the Egyptians and Pharaoh” are signified those who infested the upright in the other life, and who also at this day infest them (n. 7097, 7220, 7228, 7317, 8148).
