9308. 'Lest you provoke him' means turning away from Him through falsities arising from evil. This is clear from the meaning of 'provoking', or rousing to anger - when it has reference to the Lord, who is 'the angel' here - as turning away through falsities arising from evil; for every falsity arising from evil is a turning away from the Lord, dealt with in 4997, 5746, 5841.
