8260. THE INTERNAL SENSE

Verses 1-2. Then sang Moses and the sons of Israel this song to Jehovah, and they said, saying, I will sing to Jehovah, because exalting He hath exalted; the horse and his rider hath He cast into the sea. My strength and song is Jah, and He hath been my salvation; this is my God, and I will prepare Him a habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt Him. “Then sang Moses and the sons of Israel this song to Jehovah,” signifies a glorification of the Lord by those who are of the spiritual church, on account of liberation; “and they said, saying,” signifies in this manner from influx; “I will sing to Jehovah,” signifies that to the Lord alone is the glory; “because exalting He hath exalted,” signifies that He has manifested His Divine in the Human; “the horse and his rider hath He cast into the sea,” signifies in the fact that by His mere presence the falsities from evil were damned and cast into hell; “My strength,” signifies that everything of power is from Him; “and song is Jah,” signifies that everything of faith and of the consequent glory is from the Divine truth which is from Him; “and He hath been my salvation,” signifies that salvation is from thence; “and I will prepare Him a habitation,” signifies that in the good which is from Him, He shall be as in His heaven; “my father’s God,” signifies that there was no other Divine in the Ancient Churches; “and I will exalt Him,” signifies that now also He has Divine worship.
