7339. 'And he did not hear them' means non-acceptance and disobedience, also as above, in 7224, 7275, 7301.

7224. 'And how will Pharaoh hear me' means that those steeped in falsities are not going to accept me. This is clear from the meaning of 'not hearing' as not receiving, as immediately above in 7223; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those steeped in falsities, dealt with in 6651, 6679, 6683, 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142. The reason why 'Pharaoh' represents those who are steeped in falsities and engage in molestation, thus a large number, is that a king is the head of his people, and a king therefore has the same meaning as his people, see 4789.
