8 And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good and spacious land, unto a land flowing with milk and honey, unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

6881. 'And He said, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel' means the instruction that is provided second. This is clear from the meaning of 'God said', when it is used a second time, as a new phase of perception, dealt with in 2061, 2238, 2260, the new phase of perception being here the instruction that is given second; and from the representation of 'the children of Israel' as those who belong to the spiritual Church, for whose benefit that instruction was provided.
