1 Но Іегова сказалъ Моисею: смотри, Я поставлю тебя богомъ Фараону; а Ааронъ, братъ твой, будетъ твоимъ пророкомъ.

2 Ты будешь говорить все, что Я повелю тебј: а Ааронъ братъ твой будетъ говорить Фараону, чтобы онъ отпустилъ сыновъ Израилевыхъ изъ земли своей.

3 Но Я ожесточу сердце Фараоново, и явлю множество знаменій Моихъ въ землј Египетской.

4 Фараонъ не послушаетъ васъ, и Я простру руку Мою на Египетъ. И чрезъ великіе суды выведу воинство Мое, народъ Мой, сыновъ Израилевыхъ изъ земли Египетской.

5 Тогда узнаютъ Египтяне, что Я Іегова, когда простру руку Мою на Египетъ; и выведу сыновъ Израилевыхъ изъ среды ихъ.

6 Такъ и сдјлалъ Моисей и Ааронъ; какъ повелјлъ имъ Іегова, такъ они и сдјлали.

7 Моисей былъ осмидесяти лјтъ, а Ааронъ осмидесяти трехъ лјтъ, когда начали говорить они Фараону.

8 И сказалъ Іегова Моисею и Аарону, говоря:

9 если Фараонъ скажетъ вамъ: сдјлайте чудо: то ты скажи Аарону: возьми посохъ свой, и брось предъ Фараономъ: онъ сдјлается зміемъ.

10 Моисей и Ааронъ пришли къ Фараону, и сдјлали такъ, какъ повелјлъ Іегова; и бросилъ Ааронъ посохъ свой предъ Фараономъ, и предъ рабами его, и онъ сдјлался змјемъ.

11 И призвалъ Фараонъ мудрецовъ и чародјевъ; и сдјлали сіи тайновјдцы Египетскіе тоже своими обаяніями.

12 Каждый изъ нихъ бросилъ свой посохъ, и они сдјлались змјями; но посохъ Аароновъ поглотилъ ихъ посохи.

13 Сердце Фараоново ожесточилось, и онъ не послушалъ ихъ, такъ какъ и говорилъ Іегова.

14 И сказалъ Іегова Моисею: упорно сердце Фараоново, онъ не хочетъ отпустить народъ.

15 Поди къ Фараону завтра: вотъ онъ пойдетъ къ водј, ты встрјть его на берегу рјки. Посохъ же, который превращался въ змјя, возьми въ руку твою.

16 И скажи ему: Іегова, Богъ Евреевъ, послалъ меня къ тебј, сказать: отпусти народъ Мой, чтобы онъ совершилъ Мнј служеніе въ пустынј: но вотъ, ты доселј непослушенъ.

17 Такъ говорить Іегова: изъ сего узнаешь, что Я Іегова: вотъ симъ посохомъ, который въ рукј моей, я ударю по водамъ, которыя въ рјкј, и онј превратятся въ кровь.

18 И рыба въ рјкј помретъ, и рјка возсмердйтъ, и для Египтянъ тяжело будетъ пить воду изъ рјки.

19 И сказалъ Іегова Моисею: скажи Аарону: возьми посохъ твой, и простри руку твою на воды Египтянъ: на рјки ихъ, на потоки ихъ, на озера ихъ и на всякое собраніе водъ ихъ; и превратятся въ кровь, и будетъ кровь по всей землј Египетской ,и въ деревј и въ камнј.

20 Такъ и сдјлали Моисей и Ааронъ, какъ повелјлъ Іегова. И поднялъ Ааронъ посохъ, и ударилъ по водамъ рјки предъ глазами Фараона и предъ глазами рабовъ его, и вся вода въ рјкј превратилась въ кровь.

21 И рыба въ рјкј померла, и рјка возсмердјла: и Египтяне не могли пить воды изъ рјки, и была кровь по всей землј Египетской.

22 И тайновјдцы Египетскіе обаяніями своими сдјлали тоже. И ожесточилось сердце Фараона, и не послушалъ ихъ, такъ какъ и говорилъ Іегова.

23 И оборотился Фараонъ, и пошелъ въ свой домъ; и сердце его не тронулось симъ.

24 И стали копать всј Египтяне около рјки, чтобы найдти воду для питья, потому что не могли пить воды изъ рјки.

25 И исполнилось семь дней послј того, какъ Іегова поразилъ рјку.

7270. 'You Shall speak all that I command you, [and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh,] means the reception of Divine influx, and communication. This is clear from the representation of 'Moses', who is to speak, as Divine Truth, and from the representation of 'Aaron as teachings derived from it, both dealt with in 7089; from the meaning of 'speaking' as influx and the reception of it, dealt with in 5797; and from the meaning of 'commanding' too as influx, dealt with in 5486, 5732, here the reception of influx. From all this it is evident that 'speaking' means the influx of Divine Truth in an indirect way into doctrinal teachings, that is, with the teacher, (for it is implied that Moses, representing Divine Truth, was to speak what Jehovah commanded to Aaron, who represents doctrinal teachings or the teacher, thus to him who was to communicate it) and that 'commanding' means a direct Divine influx into the Divine Law, which 'Moses' represents.

[2] How these matters are to be understood may be seen from what has been stated already in 7009, 7010, Where it is shown that 'Moses' represents truth that comes forth directly from the Divine, and that 'Aaron' represents the truth that comes forth in an indirect way. Anyone unacquainted with the nature of order consisting in consecutive degrees cannot be acquainted with the nature of influx either. Therefore let a brief statement be made on this subject. Since truth which comes forth directly from the Lord is from the Infinite and Divine Being Himself, it cannot be received at all by any living, finite substance, thus not by any angel. This being so, the Lord created degrees consecutively descending to serve as the means by which Divine Truth coming forth directly from Him could be communicated. But the first degree away from Him is still too full of the Divine to enable that Truth to be received by any living, finite substance, and so by any angel. On account of this the Lord created a further degree down, by which Divine Truth coming forth directly from Him was to some extent able to be received. This degree is God's truth which exists in heaven. These first two degrees are above the heavens; they are like belts, made radiant by a fiery source, which surround the Sun, which is the Lord. This is the nature of the consecutive degrees of order down to the heaven nearest to the Lord, which is the third heaven where the innocent and wise live. From there consecutive degrees continue down to the lowest heaven, and from the lowest heaven down to the degree of the senses and the body in man, the last in the series to receive influx.

[3] From all this it is clear that degrees one after another continue from Him who is the First, that is, the Lord, right down to the last and lowest present with man, indeed right down to the last and lowest present in the natural order. The last and lowest degrees present with man, like those in the natural order, are relatively unresponsive and consequently frigid; they are also relatively general and consequently obscure. From this it is also evident that through those consecutive degrees all things exist in a continuous chain linked to the First Being (Esse). And it is in accordance with those degrees that influx takes place; for Divine Truth coming forth directly from Divine Good flows into one degree after another. On the way down or with each new degree it becomes more general, and so grosser and more obscure, and becomes more sluggish, and so more unresponsive and frigid. All this clarifies the nature of Divine Order consisting of consecutive degrees and consequently of the nature of influx.

[4] But it should be fully recognized that God's truth, which flows into the third heaven nearest to the Lord, at the same time flows right down into the last and lowest degrees of order as well, without undergoing consecutive degrees of formation. Every single thing at that level is also directly governed and provided by Him who is the First. In this way the consecutive degrees are held together in their proper order and connection. The truth of this may also be recognized to some extent from the law not unknown to the learned in the world that there is only one substance which really is substance. Everything else is a formation from it, and that one and only substance reigns not solely as the form but as that too which is not the form, for instance, as that which gave rise to them. If this were not so, what has been formed could not remain in being and operate. But these matters are stated for him who may be able to understand them.
