9292. 'For in it you came out of Egypt' means deliverance from molestation by falsities. This is clear from the things stated and shown regarding the departure of the children of Israel out of Egypt, in 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142, 7220, 7228, 7240, 7278, 7317, 8866, 9197. In these places it may be seen that the time spent by the children of Israel in Egypt meant the molestation by those from hell of the spiritual, that is, of those who belonged to the Lord's spiritual Church, and their protection by the Lord, and that their departure from Egypt meant deliverance from that molestation, on account of which the Passover, which is 'the feast of unleavened bread', was established, see 7093 (end), 7867, 7995.

7228. 'And for Pharaoh king of Egypt' means the warning to be given to those who molest by means of utter falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'speaking to', when it comes by Divine command and is directed to those steeped in falsities, as a warning, as above in 7220; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh', when he is also called 'king of Egypt', as those who molest by means of utter falsities, dealt with above in 7220.
