1 耶和华摩西:我再使样的灾殃临到法老埃及,然他必容你们离开这地。他容你们去的时候,总要催逼你们都从这地出去。

2 你要传於百姓的耳中,叫他们女各向邻舍要器。

3 耶和华叫百姓在埃及人眼前蒙恩,并且摩西埃及法老臣仆,和百姓的眼中看为极

4 摩西耶和华这样:约到半夜,我必出去巡行埃及遍地。

5 凡在埃及,从宝座法老直到磨子的婢女所有的长子,以及一切头生的牲畜,都必

6 埃及必有哀号;从前没有这样的,後来也必没有。

7 至於以色列中,无论是牲畜,连也不敢向他们摇,好叫你们知道耶和华是将埃及人以色列人分别出来。

8 你这一切臣仆都要俯伏来见我,说:求你和跟从你的百姓都出去,然我要出去。於是,摩西气忿忿的离开法老,出去了。

9 耶和华摩西法老必不你们,使我的奇事在埃及多起来。

10 摩西亚伦法老面前行了这一切奇事;耶和华使法老的刚硬,不容以色列人出离他的

3326. 'Esau said, Behold, I am going to die' means that [the good of the natural] would after that rise again. This is clear from the representation of 'Esau' as the good of the natural, dealt with in 3302, 3322, and from the meaning of 'dying' as the final phase of a state when something ceases to exist, dealt with in 2908, 2912, 2917, 2923. And since the end of the previous state is the beginning of the next, 'going to die', like 'being buried', here means rising again after that. For 'being buried' means rising again, see 2916, 2917, 3256. His rising again after that implies that good will come to have priority and dominion over truth, after truth in the short term has apparently had priority, dealt with above.

Genesis 48:17-20

17 When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him. He held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.

18 Joseph said to his father, "Not so, my father; for this is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head."

19 His father refused, and said, "I know, my son, I know. He also will become a people, and he also will be great. However, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his seed will become a multitude of nations."

20 He blessed them that day, saying, "In you will Israel bless, saying, 'God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh'" He set Ephraim before Manasseh.
