Goat

  

Goats, as in Leviticus 16:21, 22, signify faith. Because man is regenerated by the Lord by the truth of faith, and consequently, his sins are removed and cast into hell, therefore it is said that "Aaron made the goat bear upon him all the iniquities of the children of Israel unto the land of separation, or into the wilderness." From correspondences, a goat signifies the natural man. The goat which was sacrificed, as in Leviticus 16:5-10, signifies the natural man regarding a part purified, and the goat which was sent into the wilderness regarding the natural man not purified.

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.
