48 Und wenn ein Fremdling bei dir weilt und das Passah dem Jehova feiern will, so werde alles Männliche bei ihm beschnitten, und dann komme er herzu, es zu feiern; und er soll sein wie ein Eingeborener des Landes. Aber kein Unbeschnittener soll davon essen.

7952. 'And Pharaoh rose that night, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians' means that when all the damned without exception were brought into a state of nothing but falsity arising from evil they felt a loathing and fear of those belonging to the spiritual Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'night' as a state of nothing but falsity arising from evil, as above in 7947, and therefore damnation, for whether you say a state of nothing but falsity arising from evil or damnation it amounts to the same thing since those in that state have been damned; and from the meaning of 'Pharaoh, his servants, and all the Egyptians' as all of them without exception. The further meaning that they felt a loathing and fear of those belonging to the spiritual Church is evident from what follows. For [the next verse] says that Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron and told them to go away from the midst of his people, and verse 39 that the Egyptians drove them out.
