καὶ εἶπεν ῥῖψον αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ἐγένετο ὄφις καὶ ἔφυγεν μωυσῆς ἀπ' αὐτοῦ

27
καὶ εἶπεν εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὁ θεὸς τοῦ κυρίου μου αβρααμ ὃς οὐκ ἐγκατέλιπεν τὴν δικαιοσύνην αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειαν ἀπὸ τοῦ κυρίου μου ἐμὲ εὐόδωκεν κύριος εἰς οἶκον τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ τοῦ κυρίου μου

6944. 'And behold, they will not believe me, and will not hear my voice' means that those who belonged to the spiritual Church would not be in possession of faith and so would be unreceptive. This is clear from the representation of the children of Israel, to whom these words refer, as those belonging to the spiritual Church, dealt with in 6426, 6637; from the meaning of 'not believing' as not being in possession of faith; and from the meaning of 'not hearing the voice' as being unreceptive, dealt within 5471, 5475.
