13 וכל־פטר חמר תפדה בשה ואם־לא תפדה וערפתו וכל בכור אדם בבניך תפדה׃

8069. Because with a strong hand hath Jehovah led thee forth out of Egypt. That this signifies that they were liberated by Divine power, is evident from the signification of the “strong hand” of Jehovah, as being the Divine power of the Lord; and from the signification of “to lead forth,” as being to liberate (see n. 8050).
