9
καὶ ἔσται σοι σημεῖον ἐπὶ τῆς χειρός σου καὶ μνημόσυνον πρὸ ὀφθαλμῶν σου ὅπως ἂν γένηται ὁ νόμος κυρίου ἐν τῷ στόματί σου ἐν γὰρ χειρὶ κραταιᾷ ἐξήγαγέν σε κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἐξ αἰγύπτου
Exodus 13:9
Arcana Coelestia #8090
8090. 'And it shall be as a sign on your hand' means that it shall be constantly in the will; 'and as frontlets between the eyes' means that it shall be constantly in the understanding; and 'for by strength of hand Jehovah brought us out of Egypt' means that they were delivered by the Lord's Divine power. These meanings are clear from the explanations at verse 9 of this chapter, where similar words occur, which are dealt with in 8066, 8067, 8069.
