In Exodus 20:25, this signifies truths formed from good, or good in form, to signifies that nothing of self-intelligence should be involved in its forming. (Apocalypse Explained 391[21, 21])

7912. 'And Moses called all the elders of Israel' means the enlightenment of the understanding of those belonging to the spiritual Church through the influx and presence of God's truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'calling', when used in reference to God's truth, as influx and presence, dealt with in 6177, 6840, 7390, 7451, 7721; from the representation of 'Moses' as God's law, thus the Word and God's truth, dealt with in the Preface to Genesis 18, and also in 4859 (end), 5922, 6723, 6752, 6771, 6827, 7010, 7014, 7089, 7382; from the meaning of 'the elders' as the chief characteristics of wisdom and intelligence that accord with truth and good, dealt with in 6524, 6525, 6890, and of 'calling' these, or causing them to be present, as enlightening the understanding; and from the representation of 'Israel' as the spiritual Church, dealt with in 4286, 6426, 6637. From all this it is evident that 'Moses called all the elders of Israel' means the enlightenment of the understanding of those belonging to the spiritual Church through the influx and presence of God's truth.
