Exodus 16:3

Étudier

       

3 And the children of Israel said to them, O that we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots, and when we did eat bread to the full: for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

8491. 'And all the princes of the assembly came and told Moses' means reflection on the basis of primary truths. This is clear from the meaning of 'the princes of the assembly' as primary truths, 1482, 2089, 5044; and from the meaning of 'telling' or 'pointing out' as reflection, dealt with in 2862, 5508.
