Sent
'Being sent' means coming forth, (or going forth), in the internal sense, as in John 17:8. In similar manner, it is said of the holy of the spirit, that it was 'sent,' that is, it goes forth from the divine of the Lord, as in John 15:26, 16:5, 7.
So, too, the prophets were called 'the sent,' because the words which they spoke went forth from the holy of the spirit of the Lord.
'To be sent,' as in Genesis 37:13, signifies teaching.

Arcana Coelestia #9270
9270. 'For you were sojourners in the land of Egypt' means that they were protected from falsities and evils when they were molested by those from hell. This is clear from what has been shown in 9197, where the same words occur.
