6864. 'And now, go, I will send you to Pharaoh' means the Holy influence going forth from the Lord's Human, by which molesting falsities would be dispelled. This is clear from the representation of 'Moses', who was to go and who was being sent, as the Lord in respect of the law of God, dealt with in 6713, 6752, 6771, 6827, and so in respect of the Human (for when the Lord was in the world He first made His Human Divine Truth, which is the same as the law of God, then after that He completely glorified His Human and made it Divine Good, the difference between Divine Truth and Divine Good being like that between the light radiated from the sun and the fire within the sun); from the meaning of 'being sent' as going forth, dealt with in 2797, 4710, 6831, in this instance holy truth (regarding the use of the word 'holy' in reference to truth, see 6788); and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as falsity, dealt with in 6651, 6679, 6683, 6692. The reason for the addition of the statement that the molesting falsities would be dispelled - dispelled, that is, by the Holy influence going forth from the Lord's Human - is that what follows deals with the children of Israel, meaning those belonging to the Lord's spiritual Church, and their deliverance from falsities, from which they cannot be delivered at all except by the Holy influence that goes forth from the Lord. For that Holy influence going forth from the Lord not only dispels molesting falsities but also arranges all things into Divine order, both those in the heavens and those in the hells. The effect of that influence is such that it makes the heavens completely distinct and separate from one another, as determined by their forms of good and consequent truths, and also makes the hells completely distinct and separate, as determined by their evils and consequent falsities. It also places these kinds of evil opposite those kinds of good, and falsities opposite truths, in order that equilibrium may be established spiritual level and nothing excluded from a state of freedom.

6831. 'And the angel of Jehovah appeared to him' means the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'the angel of Jehovah' as the Lord's Divine Human, dealt with in 6280. The reason why the Divine Human is called 'the angel of Jehovah' is that before the Lord's Coming, whenever Jehovah passed through heaven He appeared in human form, as an angel; for heaven as a whole resembles one entire human being, called the Grand Man, which has been the subject at the ends of quite a number of chapters. When therefore the Divine Himself passed through heaven He appeared in human form, as an angel, before the eyes of those to whom He spoke. This was Jehovah's Divine Human before the Lord's Coming. And the Lord's Human, having been made Divine, is also Jehovah's Divine Human, for the Lord is Jehovah Himself in the Divine Human. The fact that the Lord's Divine Human is called 'the angel', may be seen in 6280. It is also clear from a number of places in the New Testament where the Lord says that He is The sent from the Father; 'being sent' means going forth, and in the Hebrew language 'the sent' is used to mean an angel. For places where the Lord says He is 'the sent', see Matthew 10:40; 15:24; Mark 9:37; Luke 4:43; 9:48; 10:16; John 3:17, 34; 4:34; 5:23-24, 36-38; 6:29, 39-40, 44, 57; 7:16, 18, 28-29; 8:16, 18, 29, 42; 9:4; 10:36; 11:41-42; 12:44-45, 49; 13:20; 14:24; 16:5, 7; 17:3, 8, 18, 21, 23, 25.
