9292. 'For in it you came out of Egypt' means deliverance from molestation by falsities. This is clear from the things stated and shown regarding the departure of the children of Israel out of Egypt, in 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142, 7220, 7228, 7240, 7278, 7317, 8866, 9197. In these places it may be seen that the time spent by the children of Israel in Egypt meant the molestation by those from hell of the spiritual, that is, of those who belonged to the Lord's spiritual Church, and their protection by the Lord, and that their departure from Egypt meant deliverance from that molestation, on account of which the Passover, which is 'the feast of unleavened bread', was established, see 7093 (end), 7867, 7995.

9197. 'For you were sojourners in the land of Egypt' means that they had been protected from falsities and evils when they were molested by those from hell. This is clear from what was stated about the affliction and oppression of the children of Israel in Egypt, about the protection of them, and at length about their being brought out from there, in Chapters 7-11, 13, 14 of Exodus. There it was shown that affliction and oppression of the children of Israel in Egypt meant molestation by those from hell, before the Lord's Coming, of faithful believers who belonged to the spiritual Church, and that protecting the children of Israel and bringing them out of the land of Egypt meant the protection and deliverance by the Lord - when He was in the world, and when He rose again - of those who belonged to the spiritual Church. But to explain these particular matters again here would take far too long. See what has been shown about them in the Chapters of Exodus mentioned above, in particular what appears in 6854, 6914, 7035, 7091, 7474, 7828, 7932, 8018, 8054, 8099, 8159, 8321.
