11
οὕτως δὲ φάγεσθε αὐτό αἱ ὀσφύες ὑμῶν περιεζωσμέναι καὶ τὰ ὑποδήματα ἐν τοῖς ποσὶν ὑμῶν καὶ αἱ βακτηρίαι ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν ὑμῶν καὶ ἔδεσθε αὐτὸ μετὰ σπουδῆς πασχα ἐστὶν κυρίῳ
Exodus 12:11
Deuteronomy 16:3
3
οὐ φάγῃ ἐπ' αὐτοῦ ζύμην ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας φάγῃ ἐπ' αὐτοῦ ἄζυμα ἄρτον κακώσεως ὅτι ἐν σπουδῇ ἐξήλθετε ἐξ αἰγύπτου ἵνα μνησθῆτε τὴν ἡμέραν τῆς ἐξοδίας ὑμῶν ἐκ γῆς αἰγύπτου πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ζωῆς ὑμῶν
Arcana Coelestia # 7278
7278. 'Out of the land of Egypt' means from molestations. This is clear from the meaning of 'the land of Egypt' as the place where those steeped in falsities who engage in molestation are, dealt with in 7240, 7274, thus molestations also. For 'the land' means the actual nation; and the nation in the internal sense means that which is associated with the nation, and therefore means molestation in this instance.
