7167. 'And since I came to Pharaoh to speak in Your name' means when the command based on matters contained in the law of God presented itself to those steeped in falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'coming to speak' as delivering a command, in this instance a command presenting itself (for a command from God is not delivered openly to those in hell; rather, they receive a warning through spirits, which therefore appears to them as if it were a command from God); from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who are steeped in falsities and engage in molestation, dealt with in 6651, 6679, 6683, 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142; and from the meaning of 'Jehovah's name' as every aspect of faith and charity with which the Lord is worshipped, dealt with in 2724, 3006, 6674, thus the law of God in its entirety, for the law of God consists of nothing else than aspects of charity and faith. Indeed the law of God is God's truth going forth from the Lord, and what goes forth from the Lord is Divine Goodness and Truth, Divine Goodness residing in love and charity, and Divine Truth in faith.

3006. These are the things that angels perceive when the names Jesus Christ are used, and the things that are meant by its being said that in no other name is there salvation, and by what the Lord stated so many times concerning His name, as in John,

Whatever you ask in My name, I will do. John 14:13-14.

In the same gospel,

These things have been written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. John 20:31.

And elsewhere. 'His name' means everything in its entirety by which the Lord is worshipped, and so the essential nature of all worship and doctrine, see 2724. Here therefore the good of love and charity is meant when joined to the truth of faith, which constitutes the fabric of doctrine and worship in their entirety.
