Arcana Coelestia #8688
8688. 'And the father-in-law of Moses saw all that he was doing for the people' means the complete knowledge Divine Good possessed. This is clear from the meaning of 'seeing all that he is doing', when said of Divine Good, which Jethro 'the father-in-law of Moses' represents, as complete knowledge. 'Seeing' in the internal sense is understanding and perceiving, 2150, 2325, 2807, 3764, 4403-4421, 5400. In the highest sense however, where the Lord is the subject, it is foresight and providence, 2837, 2839, 3686, 3854, 3863, so that 'seeing all that he is doing' is complete knowledge.
Arcana Coelestia #3764
3764. 'He saw' means perception. This is clear from the meaning of 'seeing' as perceiving, dealt with below at verse 32 of this chapter where Reuben, who was given that name from the word 'seeing', is the subject.
