7527. 'And stood before Pharaoh' means in the presence of those engaged in molestation. This is clear from the meaning of 'standing before someone' as being in his presence; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who engage in molestation, dealt with in 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142, 7220, 7228.

7126. 'Thus said Pharaoh' means regarding the molestations. This is clear from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as the ones who molest those who belong to the spiritual Church, dealt with several times already; so it is that molestation is meant.
