Ezekiel 32:2

Studie

       

2 Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say unto him, Thou art like a young lion of the nations, and thou art as a whale in the seas: and thou camest forth with thy rivers, and troubledst the waters with thy feet, and fouledst their rivers.

Foot

  

The foot, as in Deuteronomy 33:3, signifies an inferior principle. To set the right foot on the sea and the left on the earth, as in Revelation 10:2, signifies that the Lord has the universal church under His intuition and dominion.

Moon

  

The 'moon' in one sense signifies self-derived intelligence and faith grounded in a person's self. The 'moon' also signifies the Lord in reference to faith, and thus faith in the Lord. It can additionally mean mean spiritual good or truth.

'Until the moon is not,' as in Psalm 72:5, means that faith would become love.
