7650. 'And he looked away and went out from Pharaoh' means deprivation of discernment, and separation. This is clear from the representation of Moses, of whom it says that 'he looked away and went out', as the truth from God, and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who engage in molestation, both of whom are dealt with above in 7631; from the meaning of 'looking away' as deprivation of discernment, for a person is deprived of discernment when the truth from God looks or turns away, that is, when the person turns away from that truth; and from the meaning of 'going out' as separation, dealt with in 6100, 7404.

7404. 'And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh' means a separation from those who used reasonings arising from utter falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'going out' as being separated from; from the representation of 'Moses and Aaron' as the law of God, 'Moses' being inward law and 'Aaron' outward law, dealt with in 7381; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those steeped in falsities who engage in molestation, dealt with above in 7396, at this point those who use reasonings arising from utter falsities for molesting others.
